“One would have expected the Police authorities to invite the person involved and thorough investigation carried out with a view to arresting and prosecuting the culprit but nothing like that has happened. As I speak, I can’t reach my colleague again after sending those desperate messages to me!

“Should anything happen to Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere, we shall hold the Imo state governor and his aides responsible for it. I’m immediately filing an official petition with the international community on this dastardly development which I condemn in its entirety and I call on the Inspector General of Police (IGP) Usman Alkali Baba to send in his men to rescue my colleague and his people immediately. Every second counts now,” Adebayo said in a terse statement he hurriedly sent out to the media.
