The invigorated Intelligence Response Team (IRT)
under the auspices of the office of the Inspector General of Police launched a
massive onslaught on the kidnappers of some residents of an estate in Isheri
area of Lagos state. This yielded prompt result as the hoodlums were eventually
arrested.
This
feat was achieved as a result of due diligence and intelligence led policing
exhibited by members of the Force and the zeal shown by public spirited
citizens to rid our society of crime.
It will
be recalled that some residents of an Estate in Isheri area of Lagos state were
kidnapped on 27/09/2016 and were subsequently released by their
abductors. The following suspects were arrested by the team:
i.
Natei Okunna ‘M’ (gang leader)
ii.
James Kegbe ‘M’ a.k.a JJ
iii.
ThankGod Segede ‘M’
iv.
Trust Bourdilon ‘M’.
The
suspects were arrested at different locations where they had gone to spend
their share of the ransom. They, in the course of investigation, volunteered
confessional statements admitting their involvement in the kidnap incident.
The
Inspector General of Police wishes to restate the commitment of the Nigeria
Police Force to fight crime, especially the prevalent scourge of kidnapping to
a bearable and tolerable state. He urges Nigerians to always be law abiding and
to see themselves as stakeholders in this noble cause.
