Okorafor was abducted on his way from the wake keep of late Eze Innocent Anyawu, the traditional ruler of Ndihu autonomous community in Obowo LGA, whose burial is slated for Saturday, July 16.

 

The NDDC official was allegedly trailed after he left the vigil venue for his community, before he was stopped and forced into a waiting car while his car was left abandoned.
