Kidnappers Kill Juju Musican ,Bayo Ade!!!

A
popular juju musician called Bayo Ade who was kidnapped yesterday in
Benin was found dead today by family members and policemen who went to
give the kidnappers the N5 million after they had earlier collected
N500,000 as ransom

.    According to PM News ,the
musician was kidnapped shortly after he performed for the Esama of
Benin, Chief Gabriel Igbinedion, during his 77th birthday anniversary at
GRA Benin.


   The 55-year old Ade, whose career spanned over three decades was
trailed to his house at 76, Lagos Street, off Lagos Road, off Mission
Road in Benin after he had finished his performance at the Igbinedion
house in the afternoon .He was abducted while dropping off the van that conveyed him from the show.

    They whisked him away at gun-point to an unknown destination. From
their hideout, the abductors called the family of the musician and
demanded for a ransom of N20 million which was eventually reduced to N5
million.

His family pleaded with his abductors to exercise patience till today
when the banks would have opened and they would be able to give them the
N5 million ransom.Early
this morning the family members went to withdraw the N5 million from a
bank, packed the money in a sack and with the police went to the
kidnappers’ hideout.

 But before getting to the point where the money was to be delivered to
the kidnappers this morning, he was found dead at Ewa Junction off
Ikpoba Hill in Benin City.A call to the Edo Police Command spokesman to comment on the incident could not get through as his phone was switched off.
Efforts to talk to the wife of the deceased also failed as she continued to cry with other family members at his residence.A
neighbour who declined to be mentione, said that before Ade’s death,
the muscian was not in good health but managed to perform at the
Igbinedion party.
