Chairman of Action
Congress of Nigeria {ACN} in Abeokuta South Local Government Area of
Ogun State, Bisiriyu Semiu Adebare was at the weekend abducted by
suspected party thugs.

Sources say the
victim was forcefully taken from his private office at Quarry road,
Abeokuta by armed men who allegedly demanded for the party’s
registration forms and register, which they needed to increase the
number of party members in the camp of their suspected sponsor.

After the
abduction, the victim was allegedly driven to the home of one of the
party leaders where he was said to have being beaten blue and black as
part of efforts to collect the register from him.

Relief came his way
later after obeying the wish of his abductors, but that was not before
his dress was torn to shreds during his captivity.

On regaining his
freedom, the victim headed straight to the police station where he
lodged a petition to the police authority narrating his ordeal in the
hand of his alleged captors, who have since disappeared into thin air
as at the time of this report.

The petition,
titled, ‘Abduction and Theft,’ was addressed to the Area Commander of
Nigeria Police Force, Zone 2 located in Oke-Ilewo area of the town.

Mr Adebare, while
narrating the ugly experience said: “I was in my office when these
political thugs stormed my place asking for our party local government
membership registration. They threatened to kill me if I do not provide
it for them.

“I told them the
registration register is in the party secretariat and that where they
came is my private office, but this explanation did not go down with
them. They forced me at gun point into the vehicle they brought and
took me away.

“I was abducted,
molested and stripped naked and taken away with one car. They said they
were looking for membership card in which I told them to go to their
various wards to register. I would have been killed if it was not
because one of the boys in my office recognized three of them.” He said
he had equally informed the state chairman of the party, Tajudeen Bello
about the incident.
