NGGunmen abducted an employee of Nigeria's Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Christy Nkiru Okeke, in Anambra State and demanded a N40 million ransom. The abduction occurred around 7:00pm on July 24, according to security analyst Zagazola Makama. Earlier that evening, a businessman named Emmanuel Nwobodo narrowly escaped a similar attack near Ebenebe Community Secondary School, where he was shot in the leg and his car damaged.

Authorities are conducting searches and investigations to locate the victims and identify those responsible. It remains unclear if the two incidents were connected or carried out by the same group.
