A US based Edo Prince, Eloniyo Dennis Abuda, who was kidnapped on his return journey back to the United States, has been killed by kidnappers after his family paid a ransom of N10 million.

Four days after he was kidnapped on Saturday, January 30, 2021, along the Benin-Akure road on his way to Lagos from Fugar, Etsako Central Local Government Area of Edo State, the decomposing body of Prince Eloniyo Dennis Abuda was found on Tuesday near the small town of Agbanikaka, Ovia North East Local Government Area of the state.
