Sun May 6, 4:29 AM ET

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “LAGOS (AFP) - Unknown gunmen have kidnapped a Russian woman in southern Nigeria’s oil capital Port Harcourt, the local police chief said Sunday.

The woman, who works for a catering company, was abducted on Saturday around 8:00 pm (1900 GMT) on Port Harcourt’s new Airforce Link Road, Commissionner Felix Ogbaudu said.

Local residents said the woman is married to a Nigerian from another southern state, Akwa Ibom, and that she was going home from work when she was snatched.

Over the past week alone 28 foreigners have been kidnapped in oil-rich southern Nigeria, although eight of them were released within hours of being seized.”
