Popular Juju artiste, Omoba De Jumbo Beats and his band members have been reportedly abducted.

They were said to have been kidnapped yesterday while they were travelling to Kogi State from Abuja for a performance.

This was revealed on Instagram by another musician, Adeyinka Adeboye, also known as Boyebest.

He said, “A whole full band members kidnapped, Naija is f**k up I swear my prayers are with you guys. You all would come out alive.”

Boyebest said that the kidnappers demanded a ransom of N10 million for each victim.

He wrote: “May God in His infinite mercy bring you guys back home in peace in Jesus name. GOD pls bring these your children back home. This is so so scary. God have mercy.

“@omobadejumbobeats and his band men were kidnapped on their way to Kogi from Abuja for performance yesterday (Sunday) please we need help as the kidnappers are demanding #10m ransom on each person.”
