In a series of tweets, Jack said, “Chude @Chude_ has just been kidnapped by state CID in Anambra some few minutes ago. Nothing must happen to him.

“Dear Solude @CCSoludo if Chude get scratch for body, I can promise you that Anambra will not contain all of us. I will personally lead a protest never seen before in Anambra. Release the boy now you tyrant.

“So, they are not allowing us see Chude… Chude must not sleep in the state CID this night guys #FreeChudeNow”.

Jack further alleged that the state government “picked Chude up” claiming he “committed cybercrime”.

THE WHISTLER had checked Chude’s Twitter page and observed that he had been updating his page consistently with events and happenings across the 28 states where elections were held since Saturday morning.

His last tweet, however, was shared at 5:16 pm less than two hours before the report of his arrest was disclosed.

When contacted, the state Police spokesperson, Tochukwu Ikenga said he was unaware of the incident and requested more time to make enquires.

He said, “Police do not kidnap, please. But I will make an enquiry and get back to you”.
