Gunmen have abducted the Managing Director of Fouani Nigeria Limited, a popular general electronics distributor along with three Lebanese while travelling by boat in Lagos.

Fouani Nigeria Limited is a multinational company that represents LG, Hisense, Maxi, Huawei, and Jinko, among others.

Although the names of the victims have not been ascertained, PUNCH Online learnt that they were abducted around Falomo Bridge while traveling from Apapa to Victoria Island Friday evening.

A source familiar with the incident, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of its sensitive nature, told PUNCH Online that the gunmen had reached out, demanding a $1.5 million ransom.

“Yesterday (Friday) evening, the Managing Director of Fouani company (LG and Hisense) and three Lebanese were kidnapped around Falomo Bridge while traveling from Apapa to Victoria Island by boat.

“The kidnappers have asked for $1.5m,” the source said.

Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed the development.

“Yes, it is true. We got the report, and we are looking into it. Please, I’m not obliged to state more than that,” he simply said.

When pressed further about the details of the names of the abducted persons, Hundeyin insisted, “I’m not obliged to state the names, when, where and how it happened for now but we are looking into it.”
