Gunmen kidnap police officer in Nigeria

Nigerian police confirmed on Sunday the abduction of a senior police officer in the northern state of Kaduna on Saturday.

Musa Rambo, an assistant commissioner of police in charge of central north city of Suleja, was kidnapped on a highway road in the state by gunmen suspected to kidnappers, state police spokesman Yabuku Sabo told Xinhua.

Sabo did not reveal the detail of the kidnap, only saying contact had been established with the kidnappers requesting for a ransom which he failed to mentioned.

A security source told Xinhua that the kidnappers requested a ransom of 50 million naira (about 140,000 U.S. dollars) for the police officer to regain his freedom.
