kidnap of its immediate past president, Okey Wali. According
to a statement released last night, Mr Wali was kidnapped in
Port Harcourt yesterday Saturday October 11th around 9pm
by unknown persons.
"Okey Wali is a man of peace who has not only
contributed immensely to the enthronement of rule of
law and protection of human rights, but also to the
development of our Nation. It is therefore saddening that
he should become a kidnap victim. This sad event is yet
another reminder of the state of insecurity in which all
Nigerians live. We passionately appeal to his abductors
for his immediate and safe release to his family." the
