 KIDNAPPED GROOM-TO-BE REGAINS FREEDOM IN BENUE  Tartenger Terdue James, who was abducted days before his traditional marriage, has regained his freedom after his family paid a ransom to his captors in Benue State. James was kidnapped last Tuesday evening while travelling to Cross River State to purchase palm oil for his traditional wedding scheduled for Saturday, December 13, 2025. What was meant to be a joyful pre-wedding trip quickly plunged his family into fear, sleepless nights, and desperate prayers. Relief came in the early hours of Tuesday, December 17, when James reunited with his family at about 4:00 a.m. He reportedly told relatives that his abductors released him around 2:00 a.m. Family sources confirmed that the kidnappers initially demanded ₦3 million but released him after receiving about ₦1.5 million. “We tried our best and sent part of the money they asked for.

INEC Rejects LP’s Request To Witness BVAS Reconfiguration


The Labour Party, on Thursday, knocked the Independent National Electoral Commission, saying the electoral umpire deliberately came up with its idea of reconfiguring the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System machines after its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, sought to examine the election materials.


This was as the party faulted the commission’s claim of backing up the data retrieved from the BVAS without the presence of independent witnesses and representatives of political parties.


The protest is coming barely 24 hours after INEC rescheduled the planned governorship and states House of Assembly elections earlier slated for March 11 in order to reconfigure the BVAS machines.


He said, “Are we privy or invited to see what was being backed up? If there is going to be transparency, what INEC needs to do is to invite everybody with their technological experts to see what the commission intends to back up from the original source. Was this done?


“We didn’t want to use that as evidence in the court of law. INEC should not forget that we also have our own results. Anything contradictory to that particular result and what they backed up will be totally unacceptable to us.


“It is clear right from the beginning that INEC deliberately went to court for reconfiguration of the BVAS machines after Obi requested to inspect election materials. Of course, nobody, not even you and I, know the commission can come up with anything like reconfiguration at this time. This was done after we demanded to inspect those machines.


“When you are going into an arrangement, it is always important to tell people about the rule of engagement and ensure you don’t change it. But INEC keeps on changing the rule of engagement in order to cover their shady deals. It is unfortunate that we have to bring INEC down to this particular level.”
