NPF and AMBO should come and explain their acclamations

They were calling with a particular phone number and the police can't trace the number for 5 days

Thoughts ringing in my head
1- Nigerians price everything from 150m to 5m. I hail!
2- those guys are terribly broke, one can infer they are amateurs and kidnapping may not be their everyday business
3- of what use are the movies we watch about How to outsmart kidnappers. The girls didn't do muchbto help
4- why would the man just pay the money without assurance of how the girls are to get back home? He justpaid and waited when they might as well be dead at the time
5- Nigerian police ( totally inefficient) they couldn't even help track the robbers or at least the ransomer. it like they paid no role at all in this whole busineas
# this kidnapping case isn't interesting enough to be documented

what is important is that the girls are safe
who gets the credit does not matter

.

Nigerian police will never give the public the true picture of what tract ..all what they come up is given glory to who is my supposed to be there..What happen to this great negotiator ?

So all the use of advanced technology in tracking the girls and applause to one Abba Kyari was just Rubbish

I blame the school for not noticing a hole in the premises that leads to the bush . The school authority is not security conscious.

d man dat came and shout on them is a police man, i bet it with my grandfather's grave

OmichaelO:
Really??


And police couldn't track them?

of what use will the guys paraded be?

Not all kidnappers are caught. Even in the west, the first option is to pay whatever ransom demanded then the search of the culprits begins.

And this gays will now come to nairaland forum to say I got 2milion what business can I do. It is only Nigeria people wake up as millionaire and the next hour people join them to sing praises, this is a person who has not even earn up to 800,000 in their entire life, oyi.

Destinygrl:

It matters my dear. If the police cant protect, and cant rescue and are not capable in raising ransom, why should they be lying to gain credit. That is criminal. They have created an impression to the public that they are trusthworthy of which they are not

So this version of the story isn't correct?

And huge public outcry and the pressure on security agents may have been contributory factors to the rescue of three female students of babington Macaulay Junior Seminary in Ikorodu, Lagos State.

The girls — Timilehin Olosa, Tofunmi Popoola and Deborah Akinayo — were kidnapped by gunmen on Monday on their school premises.

PUNCH Metro gathered that they were rescued by policemen and other security operatives at the Imota area of Ikorodu on Sunday.

It was gathered that the public outcry prompted the government to meet the needs of security agencies on the rescue operation, while the Inspector-General of Police, Solomon Arase, sent his special team to Lagos to take over the operation.

The security agents had combed every nook and cranny of the state, especially the Ikorodu area, making the abductors uncomfortable to stay in one place.

Our correspondent was told by one of the security agents involved in the rescue operation that it was discovered that the victims were initially taken to Adamo forest immediately after their abduction.

Adamo forest is across the river in Lugbusi community, where the school is situated in Ikorodu.

The source said, “We gathered that the kidnappers were 12 men, and they came in eight canoes. They used seven AK-47 rifles for the operation.

“One of the men, who we later identified as Lamiameni, brought the kidnapping job to the gang, while another member, known as Felix, alias Tradition, was the one communicating with the families for ransom negotiation.”

Another source said from the forest, the gang moved to a creek, located between Ikorodu and Epe, Lagos State, where they also held the girls.

Security agents were said to have had the first break on March 4, when a suspected kidnapper, Emmanuel Arigidi, aged 37, was sent by the gang from the creeks to buy foodstuffs.

He was said to have bought foodstuffs big enough for an army, which confirmed the suspicion that he was a member of the gang. He was subsequently arrested.

He said, “Arigidi broke down during interrogation and confessed to being a member of the gang that stole the schoolgirls. He gave us the direction to the place they were keeping the girls, and mentioned the names of other members. He even promised to lead the operatives to the location.”

It was gathered that after waiting for Arigidi for two days, the gang sensed that something was amiss and thereafter moved to an area around Igbo Okuta Bridge, Imota, Ikorodu.

It was gathered that possible hiding places had been discussed among the gang members during the planning of the kidnapping.

When security operatives therefore noticed that there were no activities in the creek, they suspected that the gang had fled the area. But Arigidi had no problem in revealing the place they could be.

Also, the relatives of suspected abductors mentioned by Arigidi were said to have been rounded up and made to plead with their people on the telephone to release the girls.

It was learnt that the fathers of two of the suspected kidnappers were allowed on Saturday to go after their sons to talk to them and other gang members to release the girls.

“At about 5am on Sunday, over 500 operatives, comprising the IG team, the Lagos State Police Command and other security agencies stormed Imota and rescued the schoolgirls at the Igbo Okuta Bridge area of Ikorodu,” a source said. Two other suspected kidnappers were arrested during the

From your piece, it is difficult to decipher if you are in support of the kidnappers or the family of the girls.

chibwike:
just take a look at the beautiful girls...thank God the bastards did not harm them in any way. Lets pray against unexpected expenses....that money could have easily been spared..by giving God one-tenth of it....he would never allow such to happpen Buh we prefer spending on problems...

So tithe payment is "protection money"? Why hv we Christians refused to read our Bibles?! If we get protections from God cos of tithe payment....how about the breath we take? How do we pay for that one? My brother, in this new covenant we r enjoying from God... Anything and everything we ever receive from God is cos Jesus Christ paid for it, QED!!!

this isn't a debate, I'm just analysing the whole situation.
of course the kidnappers did an evil thing, but we should also see how things may have been done better to ensure their capture and the release of the girls.

Waec candidates. Pass with ease

According to police high command we rescued them without paying any ransom the kidnapper s abandoned them due to the heat and pressure coming from us. U see why our law enforcement s shouldn't be taken serious. I hope they are parading the real kidnappers not not innocent citizens

The bold comments confuse me. And why would anyone be waiting for an "interesting" kidnapping case? Kidnappings are supposed to be horrific. Not interesting. Anyway, to each his own.

Ponomote:
Op you forgot to deduct the 45k given to the girls for transport.

Better go return your own share of the ransom money.

If this story is true then i am so ashamed of the Lagos Police Commissioner because I heard him saying that no ransome was paid and that the police rescued the abducted girls. Why would a top ranking police officer be lying to the people of Lagos state?

Nollywood kidnap.... So amateur.... And sinc we have nollywod police dey cant catch dem
Beta police wud av stayed arund the money drop and look out for who comes
Or put a transmitter in the bag
