Ransom Demand
The kidnappers initially requested a ransom of 50 million for the return of John Okafor's wife, as well as his baby who is just 14 months old. However, they are said to have reduced this amount to 6 million following appeals by John Okafor. All efforts to get the kidnappers to reduce the ransom demand seems to have fallen on deaf ears. According to John:
“I am in touch with them, even before your call came in, we just finished talking and they are seriously demanding N6 million and nothing less before they could release my people. I’ve pleaded with them; I wish they will hear my cry and release them,”
John Okafor has expressed serious concern about the welfare of his wife and 14-month old baby, saying:
" Right now, I'm just begging them to release my wife and son. My son is just a year and two months old, so he is too young to be going through this."
He is said to be currently working hard to raise the ransom payment.
It will be recalled that in 2008, John Okafor was abducted while making his way to a film location in Imo State. On that occasion, he was released without any ransom payment, after being forced to make derogatory remarks about the Nigerian president as at then.
My goodness! Jesus save them. My prayers go up for Mr.John Okafor and family. I watch him in his movies in America. Please spare their lives and release them. Think of your own family. Is money tha important to you? Please let them go.
