The abducted National President of the Afenifere National Youth Council, Eniola Ojajuni, has appealed for help, seeking contributions to meet the N100 million ransom demanded by his captors.
In a viral video, Ojajuni revealed that the kidnappers have set a 3 p.m. deadline for the payment, threatening to kill him if the ransom is not met.
The footage shows a gunman pointing an AK-47 at Ojajuni’s chest as he pleads with the public for financial support.
“Nigerians, please help me! Your donations—whether N100,000, N50,000, or N1,000,000—can save my life,” he says in the video. “My name is Prince Eniola Ojajuni. God bless you. Aderohunmu, please help share this video.”
The council’s National Secretary, Abiodun Aderohunmu, confirmed the abduction, stating that the kidnappers are demanding N100 million for Ojajuni’s release.
“The Afenifere National Youth Council is deeply troubled by the kidnapping of its National President, Prince Eniola Joseph Ojajuni, in Abuja,” the statement read.
He further disclosed that Ojajuni sustained a gunshot wound during the attack and expressed grave concern for his safety.
Aderohunmu urged the federal government and security agencies to act swiftly in securing his release.
