LAGOS Nigerian kidnappers have seized a local employee of Anglo-Dutch oil group Shell in the country’s oil hub of Port Harcourt, a military spokesman said Sunday.
“I heard that a Shell worker has been kidnapped in Port Harcourt. But I don’t have the details,” Colonel Timothy Antigha, spokesman for the military Joint Task Force (JTF) in the Niger Delta told AFP.
Shell spokesman Tony Okonedo declined to comment on the incident, saying “the company does not speak on security issues”.
Rivers state police spokeswoman Rita Abbey was quoted by local media as saying local Shell worker Grace Unatoru was abducted along Tombia road in Port Harcourt on Friday night by unknown gunmen.
The whereabouts of Grace, whose husband also works for Shell, were unknown, the papers said.
They said the kidnappers had made contact with the woman’s husband and demanded a ransom for her release.
Hundreds of people, most but not all of them linked to the oil sector, have been kidnapped in the restive Niger Delta in the past three and a half years.
Most have been released after a few days or a few weeks in captivity, very often after the payment of a ransom.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
