The Guardian gathered that Fubara was abducted in a daring and brazen attack, at approximately 8:20 pm on Saturday, August 24.
Sources said the six unknown gunmen, arriving on a speedboat at Okirika Waterfront near Marine Base in Port Harcourt City Council, shot sporadically into the air before whisking the victim away.
Fubara, also a Knight of Saint Christopher in the Anglican Communion, remains unaccounted for, with his captors yet to establish contact with his family or the government.

The victim’s younger brother, Emmanuel Fubara, said the incident has been reported to the police.
Efforts to reach Rivers State Police Spokesperson Grace Iringe-Koko for comment on the abduction have been unsuccessful at the time of filing this report.
