Nigerian police and navy patrols are intensifying efforts to find a group of abducted construction workers, including a Kiwi named as Jamal Khan.
Nothing's been heard from the hostage-takers since they snatched the group of foreigners from the city of Calabar.
The New Zealand Government has already ruled out paying a ransom if it's demanded by the gunmen, which is a very real possibility.
Al Gillespie, International Law Expert from Waikato University says"if you pay ransoms, you create and incentive for terrorist groups or criminal groups to target your citizens."
He spoke to Paul Henry.
