MY MUMS ORDEAL IN THE HANDS OF ABDUCTORS -OKWONJO IWEALA

The minister of finance, Dr Mrs Okwonjo Iweala while appreciating everyone that stood her during the period of  her mother was in captive gave an insight into what her mother passed through in the hands of her abductors. Though she said she will not give details not to compromise ongoing investigation she said the 82 year old mother was without food for the period of five days and she was being taunted by them saying she must resign because she blocked the payment of oil subsidy etc.
She said such claims saying are false and concluded it by giving thanks to God

How Okonjo-Iweala’s mother was released…N10m ransom paid

Information recently gathered was that between ten to fifteen million was paid as ransom to the abductors of Madam Okwonjo Iweala, Professor Kamene Okonjo. The entire process of negotiation was carried out by the son, Prince Onyema Okonjo, who spoke various times with the kidnappers on phone between Sunday, December 9, when she was abducted till she was released on  Friday morning. The Nigerian police although carried along all through were not able to trace their location through phone calls. However a boy suspected to have been used as a sacrificial lamb by the abductors to lead her to safety has been arrested. She has however been taken to Abuja via a chartered flight. Madam Okwonjo has however expressed gratitude to the governor of Delta state for his support. An obviously helpless President Jonathan was however very happy about the development.
