A female lawyer, Paulette Abisola Ajayi, has been kidnapped by gunmen in military fatigue and dark T-shirts at Rumuokurusi, Port Harcourt, Rivers.

It was gathered the 25-year-old female lawyer was intercepted on Woji street while trying to enter their apartment by the gunmen, who seized and dragged her into their vehicle.

A source from the family said the incident occurred between 8:30pm to 9pm lamenting the assailants were yet to contact the victim’s family.

The source, who spoke in confidence, said: “Between 8:30 to 9pm, we heard a serious noise at our gate. We rushed out and saw people, we mistook for security operatives taking away our sister. We went to them including our mother and begged them to allow her to go.

“Instead of listening to us, they started shooting at our direction. They shot on the ground near our legs so we could run away and immediately forced our sister into their vehicle and drove off. They drove a white Toyota Venza.

“I don’t know the reason why they should abduct our sister. We are yet to hear from them but we are begging them to let her go. We have contacted different security formations in the state and they told us that they did not carry out such operations”.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Nnamdi Omoni, said though the matter was not officially reported to the command, they heard it from the grapevine and activated machinery to ensure her release.

Recall that the President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Olumide Akpata, has set up a task force to secure the release of a 25-year-old lawyer, Abisola ‘Paulette’ Ajayi, who was abducted on Sunday night.
