A Lebanese manager of a construction company was kidnapped by gunmen during an attack in which three soldiers were wounded, the military and a security official said Tuesday. The manager was seized in Benin City on Monday, a military spokeswoman, Capt. Roseline Managbe, said. Captain Managbe said the military doubted that an Islamist group was behind the kidnapping. Ansaru, a militant Islamist group, has claimed responsibility for seizing seven foreign workers for the same company, Setraco, in February; it said all seven had been killed.
