3 kidnapped oil workers escape in Rivers

Three of the 14 oil workers kidnapped along Omoku/ Elele road on September 2, have recently escaped from their abductors.


Four of the victims had initially escaped, leaving the number of those still in captivity, at seven.

Speaking to Channels Television in Port Harcourt, two of the escaped victims said the constant movement of the kidnappers gave them the opportunity to escape.

Citizens are therefore advised to remain highly security conscious, as it is believed that the last few months of the year, usually prove to be more dangerous with an increase in criminal activities.
