Ten crew have been abducted from a Greek bulker off Nigeria.

Owner Technomar Shipping told TradeWinds the 57,000-dwt Skylight (built 2009) was attacked by pirates on 14 December.

It added: "We are working tirelessly with our advisors to secure the safe release of our crew but will not be commenting further until this is achieved so not to jeopardise these efforts and the crew's wellbeing."
