Pictured is one of the Toyota Hilux vehicles that the
kidnappers opened fire on in Akpabuyo district near Calabar, the Cross
River state capital on Wednesday, June 22.
The gunmen shot dead a Nigerian driver and kidnapped three Australians, a New
Zealander, two Nigerians, and a South African from a worksite in
Calabar. The
workers are employed by Perth-based mining and engineering company
Macmahon Holdings.
The expatriate contractors according to sources were driving in a
convoy of 4 vehicles with the kidnapped persons in one of the two SUVs
in the convoy along with two Hilux vehicles.
The hoodlums who were said to number up to 30 were also said to be
heavily armed and battle ready prompting the security personnel attached
to the expatriates to scamper for safety.
How unfortunate...

Maybe things will be back to normal when Nigerians stop calling God all the time, instead of doing the right thing.

ReplyDeleteIf you had armoured hilux cars from armormax nigeria it wouldnt have happened.visit armormax.com for details its an american company with a branch in Nigeria or mail me gunjuone@yahoo.com for details. Better to have armored vehicles than to pay ransome to kidnappers.
