Thirteen days in the wake of abducting Mrs Beauty Siasia, the 76-year-old mother of ex-Super Eagles striker, Samson Siasia, the kidnappers presently can’t seem to free the septuagenarian and two other ladies abducted alongside her.
Beauty was abducted at her Odoni family compound in the Sagbama Local Government Area of Bayelsa State by unknown shooters the evening of July 15, 2019.
The kidnappers came around 2am in the dead of the night and fled through River Nun into the rivulets in the wake of abducting Mrs Siasia.
The kidnappers had just reached the family requesting a ransom.
While the payment presently can’t seem to be paid, Beauty and two different unfortunate casualties – Mrs Florence Douanana, 65, and her 17-year-old girl, Selekire – are still in the criminals’ custody.
The state Commissioner of Police, Mr Uche Anozia, had while visiting the location of the abduction said the police had sent their marine unit to brush the springs and salvage the people in question.
“The police tactical team is on top of the game to rescue the victims. I am assuring the public and the victims’ relatives that no stone will be left unturned.
We have deployed the police marine component in the creeks in the area. The command will continue to work hard to take control of the marine landscape in the state,” he said.
