Knowledge9000:

You think the kidnappers are not tech savvy. These are educated people with firm knowledge of modern technology. Have you asked yourself why the police could not pinpoint their exact location after series of phone calls made? They are aware of the G.P.S tracker and cash destroyer (device that explodes and destroys the cash few minutes after collection...can be made to explode after 30mins, 1hrs or thereof). The downside is that when they think that you are trying to outsmart them by doing either of these mentioned above, then they will teach you a good lesson by killing the victim. The police know this better and always advise you to give them what you have.

ubong560: There are som myopic redundancies in d entire story. E.g, she was kidnapped on sunday and was released dis morning being Friday. How com saturday wch hasn't com in d whole show came in in d story? Read it well and u will c wat am saying. I dont trust dis story. It culd b fake.

Suspect arrested
A young boy, suspected to have been used by the
kidnappers as a “sacrificial lamb” to lead the old
woman to safety after the ransom was delivered to
them on Saturday, has been arrested by security
agents to help in their investigations on the identity
of the hostage takers.

Blackteeth: I think the best way to solve this kidnapping wahala is to seriously declare NO MORE PAYMENT OF RANSOMS.
After one or two kidnappings and no ransoms paid, it would be a thing of the past.

Fornorth: YOU ARE VERRY SUTUPID

bigtt76: Wished they could have bugged the sack of money with a GPS tracker and monitored as they move along with the bags and finally nabbed by the a crack team of security agents .....

pekelepekele: N11m out of our money . It is we Nigerians that paid the kidnappers out of our tax money not Okonjo Iweala if not she would have wait on the police to rescue her mother after all a woman who gave birth to a woman of 50years old plus is good to die.

Nickydrake:

Exactly!

Didn't one of the numerous articles on this affair mention that the gang had at least ten active members? What sorta person risks a kidnapping racket for a paltry million? Legislators get paid far more than that to sit in air-conditioned auditoriums and sleep.

Then you recruit men, get a disposable get-away car, acquire arms and ammunition, scout for and secure a safehouse. . . only to be fed a measly million.

It's either kidnapping ain't so lucrative after all or these criminals suffer from a lack of imagination.


And yep, i do sympathise with the poor old woman.

Edited.

otokx: At least we are all agreed that money exchanged hands before the release was effected. A lot of kidnappings go under reported and some of them are in error or mistaken identity - in such cases of which 1 was rumored, 150k was paid to release the guy kidnapped in error. The 150k was to cover logistics and feeding for the days he was in captivity.
