A German expat working for BilfingerBerger(BB) was stopped at School Rd., near Amadi Ama roundabout, around 7.50 am this morning. his company vehicle was blocked by 2 other vehicles and a male in Army fatigues forced the driver to get out of the car. Another man in plain clothes stepped behind the wheel and drove off with car and expatriate. They headed in the direction of Eastern Bypass
The vehicle has since been found abandoned at marine base in the Koko-Ama area of Port Harcourt.
At this time we do not know who is responsible for the abduction or what their motives are.
An eyewitness informed later that he had seen about 9 men in Army fatigues and an “Oyibo” board a boat near Koko-ama and head in the direction of Okrika. Attempts are presently being made to establish contact with the kidnappers to hear their demands.
