Okechukwu Chiwendu Maryjane, a female Nigerian Air Force officer in Enugu, was abducted by gunmen, on Saturday.
The aircraft woman was said to be travelling from Enugu to Port Harcourt, Rivers State when the unfortunate incident occurred.
One of her colleagues, who spoke with SaharaReporters, said the kidnappers have demanded a ransom of N2 million, giving Tuesday as the deadline.
The colleague added that the abductee had released a voice note, at the request of the kidnappers assuring her family members and friends that once the ransom was paid, she would be released alive.
He said, ”My coursemate, Okechukwu Chiwendu Maryjane, was kidnapped yesterday on her way from Enugu to Port Harcourt. She’s an Air Force personnel (sic), the kidnappers used her phone to send a message to our class WhatsApp group yesterday night.
“I learnt they’re still chatting with her family members and some of her other colleagues. They demanded a ransom of 2 million naira. They even sent her nudes (nude pictures) to us.
“And she also sent voice notes saying we should start sending money into her account that they’ve told her that as long as they start seeing (bank) alert, she will remain alive; if not, she will die.
“At first, the kidnappers gave us Monday as the deadline but we reminded them that there’s a holiday on Monday. They gave us till Tuesday. Now we have to remove her from our group chat.”
