The Commissioner for Information, Culture and Tourism in Nasarawa State, Yakubu Lawal, has been kidnapped by gunmen who stormed his residence on Monday.

“The search and rescue operation is ongoing by the combined team, led by the Area Commander, Akwanga Area Command, ACP Halliru Aliyu, to rescue the victim unhurt and arrest the perpetrators of the crime.”

The state Governor, Abdullahi Sule, while reacting to the incident on Tuesday at the Government House, Lafia, decried the spate of kidnapping in the area. Sule said, “I had no idea that some of our commissioners do not have police attached to them until today, and other commissioners have three or four policemen because of the situation they find themselves in. This is very wrong. We should seek police protection.

“In a week, we now have three incidents. For that reason, we cannot fold our arms. We have to be able to take a stronger position. I urge you as members of the executive, especially top government functionaries, to do the best you can to be more cautious.”All rights reserved.
