According to an eyewitness, who spoke to Nigerian Tribune, the G0nmen dragged the politician from his car, bundled him into a waiting vehicle and drove off still firing shots into the air.

The eyewitness added that at first the kidnappers drove along Nassarawa street but made a u-turn after sighting a Police patrol van ahead and then sped along the Federal Lowcost road.

Another eyewitness said that he was at a car dealer stand with his friends for the evening Moslem prayers when the G0nmen started shooting sporadically before they seized and bundled Boris inside a waiting car and zoomed off.
