This is really disturbing. It seems like the theater of kidnapping has now fully shifted to the Southeast, making the region increasingly unsafe. If even the President of the Ohanaeze Youth Council can be abducted in such a dramatic manner, what hope is there for ordinary citizens? The authorities need to act fast, not just to find Igboayaka but to tackle the rising insecurity in the region before things spiral further out of control.
