The peace of Otuoke in Ogbia local government area of Bayelsa State was violated in the early hours of today (Wednesday) by gunmen who abducted a prominent chief of the community and foster father of former President Goodluck Jonathan.

The victim, identified as Chief Inengite Nitabai, aged 72 was kidnapped at about 3.30am at his residence by seven heavily armed men.

It would be recalled that the septuagenarian was also kidnapped some two years ago by four gunmen.

Details later.
