Police in the State has confirmed the kidnap incident but said, it has launched an investigation to unravel the circumstances surrounding their disappearance.

A statement by the Command’s spokesman, DSP Daniel Ndukwe is silent about the missing of Actor Clemson Cornel but simply notes the incident as involving Cynthia Okereke.

Both Nollywood Actors were last seen on Tuesday, 26th July 2022 in a red coloured Toyota Rav SUV said to belong to the missing Actress Cynthia, but abandoned by the gunmen.

The disappearance of the Nollywood Actors is coming at a time of series of violent attacks and kidnappings for ransom by suspected gunmen in the South East region, amidst rising cases of insecurity across Nigeria.
