The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that suspected kidnappers had stormed the community on Sunday during the Eid-El Kabir celebrations, abducted the people and escaped in two speedboats.
The kidnappers were said to have later contacted the families of the victims on Sunday night, demanding for N30 million as ransom.
