The corps member, Igwebuike Amilia Nkechi, with registration number PL/19B/1423 was abducted on Monday at 4:30am at her abode around AA Garden Rukuba road in Jos and is said to be attached to the Jos North local government secretariat.

Security sources had earlier confirmed to Daily Trust that the abductors had demanded a ransom of N5 million for her safe release.
