By Paul Osuyi, Asaba
The kidnappers of a couple in Delta State have reportedly demanded a ransom of N10 million to free the victims, Sun News reports.
The couple, Mr & Mrs Kelvin Mordi, were abducted last Saturday along the Agbor axis of the Benin-Asaba-Onitsha expressway while going to a wedding reception.
Eyewitnesses said the hoodlums intercepted the vehicle in which they were travelling and got them into their get-away vehicle.
Sun News reports that the Police spokeswoman, DSP Onome Onovwakpoyeya, confirmed the incident but said she was not aware of ransom negotiation.

Onovwakpoyeya said that the police have commenced rescue operation for the victims.
