A former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Chief Olu Falae, has said his abductors aimed at killing him on the day he was kidnapped on his farm at Ilado Village, Akure-North Local Government Area of Ondo State.

He explained that the kidnappers first aimed at killing him by shooting at his vehicle when they stormed his farm, because they thought he was inside the car.

Falae stated this on Friday at his Akure residence while playing host to members of the Oodua Peoples Congress, led by Gani Adams.

Recounting his ordeal to the visitors, the elder statesman said, “They were not after money alone; they wanted to eliminate me by shooting my car, thinking I was inside the car.

“They later walked into my office with their sharp knives and cutlasses and started cutting me with machete before taking me into the bush. We trekked from Akure to Owo, following bush paths and swampy areas on my bare legs till we got to an area close to Ifon in Ose Local Government Area.”

Sympathising with the former presidential candidate of the Alliance for Democracy, Adams said if a national figure like Falae could be dealt with in that manner, such a treatment could be meted to the younger generation also.

He said, “It is an insult that such a revered elder statesman can be so harassed in his own land. He is not just an elder, he had been secretary to the Federal Government, finance minister, permanent secretary and presidential candidate. If he could be kept for four days what then can happen to ordinary citizens?”

Adams restated his stand that President Muhammadu Buhari should implement all the 633 recommendations contained in the report of the 2014 National Conference which addressed security, and other important sectors that can move the country forward.

This is a jam of life, jam aye leleyi ooo

But they released you after ransom.
I'm not in support of the criminals.
But as you are a statesman, know that Nigeria is sitting on a keg of gun powder, so purge yourself of lining her along ethnic division.
What will this add to the common man, why can't you just tell the armed men?

So? U go be the first, make we con dey cry.?

I comment my reserve.
Gani Adams claiming levels by advising PMB to implement one report.
Why didn't he advice his master Jonny when he went to secure pipeline protection contract.
Falae I help u thank God sha

Why didn't he say dis in d beginning, after d DSS has arrested dos guys nao n dey av been confirmed to b mere miscreants, he is now saying dis to take advantage of his kidnap in getting d president's attention just d way dey were all over GEJ

They had him for four days, If their mission was to kill him, he would have been dead. The fulani herdsmen knew who he was, they know his value and his must have been under their surveillance for sometime. So his kidnap was motivated by money.

Baba. Nobody is doubting you but the amount of times you have changed this story and the 'assumptions' that have been diffused by real investigation.... You see eh... I'm trying my best not to call you a liar. Please thank God for your safe return and let everybody move on. Thank you...
