Gunmen have kidnapped the Benin depot chairman of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, (IPMAN), Baba Abdul-Hamid Saliu, in Edo State.

It was gathered that the gunmen killed his driver before kidnapping him.

Reports say Saliu was kidnapped on Monday evening at about 7pm in Jattu, his country home, in Etsako West Local Government Area of Edo State.

The gunmen, numbering six, who reportedly laid ambush at his residence with two vehicles without number plates, started shooting sporadically on sighting the victim’s vehicle and in the process killed the driver.

The kidnapper reportedly abducted him after overpowering the security attached to him who were said to have sustained different degrees of injuries during the shootout.

A source close to the family said the kidnappers are yet to contact the family for ransom payment.

Edo State Police Command’s spokesman, DSP Bello Kongtons, confirmed the abduction of Saliu, who was last week Thursday, elected Benin Deport chairman of IPMAN.
