To abdicate is to formally give up a high position, such as a throne or a responsibility, while to abduct is to take someone away to an unknown place against their will, often by force or threats.

Relinquish means give away, therefore, its opposite is to keep. i.e Possess.

Abdicate:

Sometimes someone in power might decide to give up that power and step down from his or her position. When they do that, they abdicate their authority, giving up all duties and perks of the job.
