Kidnappers of Channels TV Reporter Demand N15m Ransom
After abducting him on Monday in his house, the kidnappers of Channels Television correspondent, Mr Temitope Kuteyi, have demanded N15million ransom to free the man.
Kuteyi was abducted in his house located along Umuguma Specialist Hospital, Owerri in the early hours of Monday. However, until the time of filing this report, his whereabouts was still unknown.
An eye witness, a security man, who gave his name as Thomas said the bandits numbering about eight, scaled through the fence into the victim’s compound.

“I was in the security room with my brother when someone opened the window and pointed a gun at us and ordered us to open the gate, but I refused.
“While I was arguing with them, I didn’t know that other members of the gang had climbed into the compound through the fence; they broke into my `oga’s’ house and brought him out.
“After that, they entered into the next bungalow and smashed all the window glasses, but the man there escaped through the fence at the back.
“They took his car and drove away with my Oga,” the security man said.
Meanwhile, the abductors who spoke with a friend of the victim, demanded a ransom of N15 million.
A press statement signed by the Chief Press Secretary to the Imo Governor, Mr Sam Onwuemeodo, said the attention of the state government had been drawn to the incident.
He reminded the kidnappers that the “young man (victim) was only a reporter.”
According to him, those behind the kidnapping have just decided to inconvenience the victim and his family.
“A journalist cannot afford to pay any ransom. To us he must have been a victim of mistaken identity,”he said
