A suspected kidnapper, Niyi Omosola, has been shot dead by the police in the Epe area of Lagos.

PUNCH Metro learnt that Omosola was shot dead during a rescue operation by the police to free a victim, identified simply as Kudirat.

It was gathered that Omosola, while collecting the ransom, sighted the police and decided to escape on a motorcycle when the operatives fired him.

It was gathered that Omosola, who hailed from Ondo State, allegedly led a gang which kidnapped the woman in the Elemoro, Ajah area.

Sixty-two-year-old Kudirat was reportedly abducted by the gang on Thursday, April 16, at about 7pm.

Our correspondent learnt that Kudirat, a businesswoman, was inspecting the construction work at a petrol station she owned in the area when the kidnappers swooped on her and took her away.

It was gathered that the gang later contacted the family and demanded a ransom of N50m. However, after negotiation, our correspondent learnt that the the gang and the family agreed to a ransom of N3m.

PUNCH Metro learnt on Wednesday that Kudirat’s brother, who had been communicating with the gang, took the ransom to an agreed hideout in the Epe area.

However, a team of operatives led by the Special Anti-Robbery Squad Commander, Abba Kyari, was said to have trailed Kudirat’s brother to the hideout.

A police source said Omosola, while collecting the ransom, initially opened fire when he sighted the police.

He added that when the kingpin saw that he was outnumbered, he tried to escape on a motorcycle, leaving the policemen with no choice than to fire him.

He said, “The kidnappers are a notorious gang. They had conducted several operations in the area. In the latest incident, they demanded N50m initially, but when the family could not produce the amount, they finally agreed to N3m. They also arranged where the place of meeting would be in the Epe area.

“The police trailed the brother, who was taking the money to Epe, where Omosola was waiting. Immediately he collected the ransom, he suspected that policemen were around and he began to shoot sporadically.

“He got on a motorcycle and was riding off when he was gunned down. He did not die immediately.”

PUNCH Metro learnt that Omosola, who was injured, led the SARS operatives to a bush between Epe and Ijebu Ode, where the woman was held.

When the police arrived at the hideout, his gang members had reportedly fled the place.

It was gathered that Kudirat was rescued alive by the police, while Omosola eventually died from the gunshot injuries.

The Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, said efforts were on to apprehend the remaining gang members.

He said, “When the information was received, the operatives trailed the gang to the location.

“The kidnap kingpin actually fired at SARS operatives, who were carrying out the rescue operation, and they fired back. In the process, he was fatally wounded.

“The woman has been rescued, while the corpse has been deposited at a public morgue.

“Efforts are being intensified to arrest other fleeing members of the gang.”

I was here to check the graphic picture

Who is the mod that blocked my comment? If it was an IGBO person who did it now, they would leave the comments for the world to see! Nairaland is XENOPHOBIC

if this man were to be an Igbo man all hell would let loose because last I checked they claim it's just one tribe that is involved in kidnapping. This new development and Chibok girls comes to mind so sad.

Many who said they came to see the graphic picture actually came to check the name of the kidnapper and start the tribal war which seem to be a new kick for nairaland kids all over the place......but they were sissapointed hence this threrad has b ee dry and low traffic



If it were an igbo name that showed up as a kidnapper all hell would have let loose

I won't start insulting any tribe; my stance has always been that evil is something that can take flesh in any human person

I feel sad that another human being has been consumed by evil.....its very sad

Let us put a stop to this tribalistic attitude honestly it leaves a sour taste in the mouth

Just yesterday I was moved to write a rejoinder on some xenophobic statement by someone hating on the igbos

I will never ever be provoked by such tribalistic statements, rather I will feel sorry for the person who says so for a lack of understanding about the fact that we all are members of this human family made in love by GOD

There is something beautiful in each tribe that I can emulate and evil is not domiciled with any tribe....its a common malaise

Mr Seun should really start banning hate topics on this site cos the degree of hate am seeing around is getting out of hand

Mod, if You like hide my comment a million times. Change That Name to either Emeka, Chidi, Ebuka etc so that traffic can accelerate. Abi igbo haters never resume for nl

These folks from west have taken kidnapping to a new level, the other day it was one yoruba lady that kidnapped three children that said kidnapping is in the family, the other guy at lekki called Lekan last month



THESE PEOPLE SHOULD STOP DENTINT THE SOPHISTICATED IMAGE OF YORUBAS. THIS IS AN APPEAL NOT A BASHING



We have to speak out...

Why won't the police shoot him dead? The money is too small to share with the police. If the kidnapper had requested for N30m, he would have shared it with the police and he wouldn't have been shot.
Police and lawyers in Naija are the same. Steal big and settle and you go scot free. Steal small, the police and lawyers will vex and give you maximum punishment for wasting their time. There is God ooo!

Why would a wounded criminal who obviously knows he stands no chance of survival with his wounds and our police,still take them to their hide out Sonds funny sha. Anyway good work to d police.

Too I

Anytime we read about a successful police intervention in robbery or kidnap cases in Lagos State, we are always told that the commander, Abba Kyari led the operation. I really wonder if this commander always in fact lead all operations conducted by SARS or he is just fond of taking glory for the effort of his subordinates, while those ones put their lives on the line all the time

The guy has really met his waterloo in a disastrous aqua.

wrong description of information.

So yorubas dey kidnap pple? I tink say na igbos dey commit such crime.

The police shouldn't have fired a killer shot......how will they get the other members of the gang

abatically:


U need to learn how to read. How do u immobilise a moving target on a motorcycle? U think this is video game?

U need to learn how to reason. So the police couldn't shoot at the tyres of the motorcycle, even at the motorcycle itself if they missed shooting the criminal's legs. Abeg jare..

And your point is?

Now let me say it as it is.

All the Yorubas on nairaland God go punish una if una pass by this thread without saying 'Hi' to one of una blood.

You people are the pioneer of everything evil in this country. You people started armed robbery, bribery, tribalism, hating other tribes, kidnapping, rape, in'cest, thuggerry, ghost worker, pick pocket, fake certificates forgery, cowardice and 2faced treachery, unreliability and depth of hell evil machinations.

Graphic picture! Graphic picture! Are you guys not tired of seeing blood. Free my guy abeg. Meanwhile I think Laos state police command are getting results this day. Hit like if you agree.

Burger01:
Wey the graphic picture. Op, you know the meaning of graphic in a picture


Btw, our police force need to learn how to immobilize criminals by legs rather than killing them outrightly. Now, the guy don die, how would they be able to trace and arrest his accomplices

I don't think u read these article,but next time before u comment trash make sure u read the stroy.ODE

Don't bite more than you can chew... besides, i usually laugh my head off when dumb criminals get caught or shot. Not supporting Kidnapping though.
