Two oil workers have reportedly been kidnapped by gunmen in Rivers State.
Reports say the victims were on their way back from an official engagement in Bayelsa State when the gunmen attacked their convoy, forcing them to stop along Rumuji axis in Rivers.
In the process, the driver of the escort vehicle was reportedly killed while the victims were dragged out of the car and taken to an unknown destination.
Rivers police spokesman, Nnamdi Omoni, confirmed the incident today.
He said the Commissioner of Police in the state had mandated a tactical team of joint security agents to comb all the adjourning bushes for victims.
Omoni revealed that the team which was directed to stop at nothing to nab the kidnappers stumbled on two other persons earlier kidnapped and kept in the area.
He added that the officers killed one of the kidnappers during the operation.
