Families of the five Pakistani nationals on board an oil vessel, Mt Matrix 1,
abducted last Saturday at 40 nautical miles off the Bayelsa coast have
told the management of the company, Matrix Energy, in Warri, Delta
State, not to pay any ransom to the abductors to get them released,
promising to take revenge on Nigerians in their hundreds in Pakistan, if
any of the victims was killed.
The abducted victims include the Captain, Chief Officer, cook and two
others. They were conveying automated gasoline oil, AGO, from Lagos to
Eket, when they were abducted at 9pm.
Sources said that relevant security agencies in Bayelsa State and Warri in Delta State, had been informed of the incident.
The source added that the company had begun negotiation with the abductors, but that details of negotiations with the company on ransom were not disclosed.
