Abductors of former foreign affairs minister, Bagudu Hirse, are yet to contact the family to demand a ransom.
His elder brother, John Putmang Hirse, told TheCable in a telephone interview that the family is agitated about the whereabouts of the former minister.
Putmang, a retired federal permanent secretary and district head of Mangu, Plateau state, said: “We are worried that nobody have contacted us.
“I get anxious whenever my phone rings. We have been expecting that they will call us but we have not received any call.

“We are praying about his safety. As a family, we are traumatised about the incident and we are calling for prayers for him.”
Bagudu, who was the governorship candidate of Labour Party in Plateau state in 2015, was kidnapped in Kaduna on Sunday around the house of Mamman Daura, President Muhammadu Buhari’s nephew.
He was said to have put up some resistance as the armed men grabbed him and took him away.
