Police in Nasarawa State say an investigation has begun in the suspected abduction of a Permanent Secretary with the Nasarawa State Ministry of Information, Culture and Tourism, Yusuf Musa.
In a statement released by the State Police Command spokesman Ramhan Nansel to journalists in Lafia says after comprehensive investigation into the abduction confirmed he was missing, raising security concerns.
Nansel explained that, in the early hours of Tuesday a patrol team from B Division, Lafia, discovered a Peugeot pick-up van with all doors left wide open in a suspicious manner.
Upon closer examination, officers observed that the gate to the victim’s residence was also ajar, prompting further suspicion of abduction.
