The Senator representing Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani has said efforts are on to pay the “N60 million ransom’’ demanded for the release of kidnapped aid workers in Kajuru Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
The Senator also requested that a condolence letter be sent by the Presidency to the family of late Faye Mooney, who was killed by the suspected kidnappers.
Mooney was killed with Nigerian National Dunjuma Oguche at Kajuru castle by yet to be identified gunmen.
Three other aid workers, whose identities have not been revealed are, however, still in captivity.
Senator Sani, however, revealed that negotiations were ongoing to pay the ransom for the abductees.
