Spokesman of the state police command, DSP William Aya confirmed on Sunday that the commissioner and the LGA chairman were travelling along side others when the incident took place.
According to him, the report was brought to the police by 4:30pm on Saturday and they moved to the scene as early as possible.
The whereabouts of the Chairman and others that were abducted is yet to be known, as the abductors haven’t called to mention any reason for the abduction.
