 The president of the Pan-Ijaw Youth Group, Ijaw Youth Council, Pitta Iqbifa, has regained freedom from his abductors. Iqbifa was reportedly kidnapped on Tuesday morning by unknown gunmen in River State while heading to the airport for a trip to Abuja. Iqbifa confirmed that he was abducted, saying the gunmen that took him away wanted him to call off the ongoing protests against the failures of the federal government to inaugurate a substantive board of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC. He said he was released at Pocuma in Biosas State by the gunmen who barricaded his vehicle on Tuesday morning, blindfolded him and drove him to many places. Iqbifa called on Ijaw Youth to troupe out and mass for the continuation of the demonstration. Iqbifa News Updates
