Six days after her abduction at a church in Asaba, Delta State, the whereabouts of Joan Mrakpor, a former House of Representatives member for the Aniocha/Oshimili federal constituency, remain unknown.
Mrakpor, who previously served as the Commissioner for Technical Education in Delta State, was kidnapped last Tuesday during a church service near the Delta Broadcasting Service (DBS) in Asaba. During the incident, her police orderly and another individual were shot dead.
Reports reveal that her abductors transported Mrakpor to a waiting speedboat on the River Niger’s bank. The gunmen drove her to the riverbank at Otu-Ogwu Road in Asaba, set their car on fire, and then moved her onto the boat.
Police Public Relations Officer Bright Edafe confirmed that the police are still actively searching for the kidnappers.
