Chief Inengite Nitabai Jonathan
After spending 35 days in captivity, Inengite Nitabai, foster father of former president, Goodluck Jonathan has revealed that his abductors took very good care of him. 72-year-old Chief Inengite Nitabai Jonathan, the foster father of former president, Goodluck Jonathan, who was kidnapped on February 17, for the second time in two years, and regained his freedom on March 23, after spending 35 days in captivity, has revealed that his abductors took very good care of him.
Speaking with the News Agency of Nigeria in Bayelsa on Friday, he disclosed that his abductors gave him a preferential treatment before setting him free, adding that he was allowed to open his face while others were blindfolded.
"I was properly taken care of by the kidnappers. I ate three square meals daily, my drugs were administered to me appropriately by the boys," he said.
He said they even asked other kidnapped victims to pay obeisance to him as the only person who was untouchable in the camp. "Before they agreed to treat me well, they argued among themselves from my house till we got to their hideout, but on getting to the camp they resolved the issue."
As at the time of filing this report, it is unclear if a ransom was paid for his release, as Asinim Butswat, public relations officer of the Bayelsa state police command refrained from discussing details of Inengite’s freedom.
