One month after, Governor Ayade’s Commissioner for Women Affairs still in Kidnappers Custody as family cries out to IGP 

 

 

 

The family of Professor Gertrude Nnanjar Njar, the Commissioner for Women Affairs in Cross River State who was kidnapped over one month ago has appealed to the Inspector General of Police (IGP) to help rescue her, Ejes Gist News Nigeria reports.

 

 

 

Armed men dressed in military fatigue kidnapped Prof Gertrude in the early hours of February 1, 2023, on Atamunu Street in Calabar while on her way to the office in her official Renault car.
