Gunmen have kidnapped a Swiss national, Andred Beita, and his Nigerian driver who is simply identified as Ifeanyi, in OG0n State.
Police authorities in OG0n have confirmed the incident, saying it occurred along the Ibese-Itori Road on Saturday.
The spokesman for the command, Mr Abimbola Oyeyemi, explained that the victims were seized by bandits as they were coming from a farm in the area.
“They were intercepted… Two of the bandits were killed, but they succeeded in abducting two – a Swiss national and another person,” he said. “The police are on the trail of these people.”
The assailants were said to have exchanged G0nshots with a team of policemen attached to a farm in the area before the abduction.
In the process, two civilians were injured and rushed to a hospital for treatment.
Switzerland authorities also confirmed the incident in a statement by the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs (FDFA) on Monday.
“The FDFA and the Swiss embassy in Abuja are in contact with the local authorities,” they said. “The FDFA is coordinating activities with the various departments of the federal administration relevant to this type of case.
“For reasons of personal and data protection, the FDFA cannot provide further information.”
