The abductors of four children including a toddler in Kaduna have demanded N300 million ransom for their release.
According to Daily Trust, the abductors, who contacted the victim’s father, have threatened to kill the youngest child because of his cries.
The kidnappers reportedly told the father of the victims, simply identified as Adamu, to pay the ransom or the children would be killed.
While speaking to Daily Trust on Thursday, Adamu, who lives in Keke A, Chikun Local Government Area said that the bandits even beat the children because he pleaded with them over the ransom demand.
“They called me, demanding N300 million, and when I pleaded, I could hear them beating the children. I need prayers,” he said.
The children were said to have been abducted when their father was out on Tuesday night to visit his wife, who was taking care of their sick twins in the hospital.
