Kidnappers, who took an American missionary on Monday in Kogi State, are demanding a ransom of nearly $300,000, authorities have said.
The Rev. Phyllis Sortor, 70, was abducted while she was at the Hope Academy, where she works as a financial administrator in Emiworo, Kogi State, officials from her Seattle church said on Tuesday.
Friend of Sortor were later contacted by the hoodlums, who are demanding N60m (or nearly $300,000), for her safe return, said Kogi Police Commissioner Adeyemi Ogunjemilusi.
