He was abducted on Saturday in a place close to his residence in Umuadara Umulogho Autonomous Community, about three kilometres away from a military checkpoint in the Obowo Local Government Area of Imo State.
The incident reportedly caused panic in the community.
The traditional ruler of the community Eze Patrick Uwalaka has confirmed the incident.
