Kidnappers Free Mr Ibu's Wife and Son

Bayo Adetu


Mr. Ibu’s wife, Stella-Maris and his one year old son, Emmanuel Mandella Okafor, were released by kidnappers late last night.

Confirming the development to an online new media-pmnews on phone this morning, Mr Ibu expressed his joy over the release of his wife and son, but refused to disclose the ransom he paid.

In his words – “Obviously i’m very happy that my wife and son have been released, but I will not disclose the ransom. However, I want to thank my friends, colleagues and Nigerians in general who stood by me during this trying period,”.

Stella- Maris and Emmanuel were kidnapped in Enugu on Tuesday last week.

Their kidnappers initially demanded for a N50 million ransom, but later slashed it to N6 million when the Nollywood actor pleaded that he cannot afford to pay such amount of money.
