Kidnappers demand N50 million for abducted Lobi Stars player

Lobi Stars player, Sunday Akleche, has been reportedly abducted by unknown gunmen in Aba, Abia State.

Akleche has allegedly kidnapped on Tuesday alongside with his fiancé along Aba-Port Harcourt Expressway en-route the National Youth Service Corp (NYSC) camp in Abia State.

He was said to be on his way to drop his intended wife at the NYSC camp.

According to Owngoalnigeria, a member of the Akleche family broke the news of the incident on Wednesday.

The family member said that the kidnappers have placed an N50million ransom on the player in one of the conversations they had with his family via the player’s phone yesterday night.

The abducted Akleche was ever present for Lobi Stars who were crowned champions after the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) was brought to an end with 14 matches left to go.

The Kaduna-born forward has not been allowed to talk to his family by the kidnappers.

Already the issue has been reported to security agencies in Abia State while a search is on to rescue him from his abductors.
