The abductions marked the third time the terrorists have invaded their traumatized community, he said. Saying the community's last hope lay with police, other security agencies and the Nigerian government, he issued an appeal for them to rescue those held captive. "We make this appeal because we have nowhere to raise money for payment of ransom if these terrorists eventually ask us to do so, as has been the norm in the other two attacks on our community," Peter said.
