  It was gathered that Ms. Ebua was snatched at about 9pm in her home by the gunmen who whisked her away through the waterways at the back of her house.
The incident compelled the Commander of the Joint Task Force (JTF) Operation Pulo Shield, Maj.-Gen. Emmanuel Atewe, to initiate a manhunt for the kidnappers.

It was further gathered that he personally led some troops to the scene of the crime on Tuesday morning.
 "The command has activated the security network on both land and waterways in conjunction with other security agencies to locate and track down the kidnappers," he said.
