Some travellers were kidnapped from Bayelsa State when they stopped over to help some accident victims at Elele, Rivers State.
The kidnap victims were said to be returning from a traditional wedding at Mbaise, Imo State, at the weekend, when they fail prey to the men of the underworld.
According to report, a social media activist Prince Elayo Ekete and the driver of the Sienna car were said to have died on the spot.
Another source said, “The wedding was attended by most social media activists from Bayelsa across political party lines. Ekete and seven others were returning from the occasion and they got to Elele when their vehicle had a head-on collision.
“Ekete and the driver died on the spot. But five others were rushed to a hospital in the area. But four of the rescuers were abducted by kidnappers.
“The kidnappers went to the accident scene, recovered personal effects of some of the victims and called one of the rescuers asking him to come to a particular place to collect them. When they got there, the gunmen seized them”.
