When will our police ever rescue a kidnapped victim without payment of ransoms?

This country is becoming too dangerous to live in with Evans everywhere.

Kidnapping gradually getting out of hand, replacing Boko Haram

Taking the shape of the easiest and most lucrative business

Because their is no capital punishment for offenders...

But for how long would govt. allow a cosmetic approach with this terrible national malaise?

This is a very welcome development and we strongly hope it would become the trend!


I hereby appeal to the national association of Nigeria kidnappers to desist from kidnapping the common man. Nigeria has no business being in recession with mass suffering among citizens if not for treacherous representation of past political leaders. It therefore makes perfect sense that all desperate and extreme acts of survival,including kidnapping should be visited on past failed political leaders.

Even former president Jonathan's family paid ransom before his uncle was released even while still in power. Former finance minister NOI did the same thing. Whenever there is a kidnap in this country,it takes only a miracle for ransom to be absent.#where#is#our#securityagencies

Is it dat our Police don't have shame or what? How com dey will always shamelessly b d ones to announce dat kidnapped victims have been released after ransom was paid. No talk of tracking dem and eventually capturing dem. Why exactly are dey d ones to com forward and make such shameless announcements and not d families and yet dey'll blame ppl for glorifying fraudsters, Kidnappers and Criminals.. What other glorification is worse dan dis??
Who did we offend in dis country abeg??
