POLICE ARREST FOUR FOR FAKING KIDNAP, DEMANDING FIVE MILLION NAIRA RANSOM

Detectives of the Lagos States Police Command have arrested Margret Itodo ‘f’ aged 25, Agnes Ogbeh ‘f’ aged 23, Esther Anyanwu ‘f’ aged 24 and Anthony Chinakwe ‘m’ aged 24 for faking the kidnap of Agnes Ogbeh.

On March 19, 2024, Agnes Ogbeh, resident in Akure, had travelled to Lagos and was reportedly kidnapped in Lagos. The family back in Akure received a video showing Agnes and one other tied, gagged, and groaning with blood droplets around them. The ‘kidnappers’ demanded the sum of Five Million Naira for the release of Agnes.

Upon receipt of the complaint, detectives of the Command commenced a discreet and diligent investigation into the matter. The hideout was located where Agnes, the other lady in the video and two others were found living freely together.

Further investigations revealed that Margaret Itodo is a professional make-up artist who was hired to make the video look real. All four have made confessional statements and are to be arraigned at the conclusion of investigation.

The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, CP Adegoke Fayoade, mni while commending the detectives for a timely investigation calls on Lagosians to be vigilant and report any suspicious activity around them to the nearest security agency.

Still writing my book tittled
"The criminality in every Nigerian "

I know you all will say what do i know that I'm just a weed smoker, pussy banger, drunkard and a keyboard warrior


But the truth be say I go shock una with the book
One thing about Nigerians is that we are hypocrites and fakes
98 percent of Nigerians are not angry with bad government, corruption and our politicians we are just pretending to be angry because we are not the ones carrying out the corruption

Interesting...Hunger bad oo...but anything that will make me loose my Precious freedom and be kept in a small dirty smelly place like a caged animal...l do rather die of the hunger...

Reminded me of when l spent 3 days in an Anti-Cult Squad Cell last two years...first day...we were all cracking jokes and laughing and playing Whot cards...Someone will jst fart loudly and us fresh inmates will break into bouts of laughter...one old inmate was like...you guys are still enjoying urselfs now abi...let's see how una go dey feel like in three days time...And true to the guy's words...by the third day l was already thinking of commiting suicide walahi...
Now imagine being there for weeks... months or even years sef... it's better imagined than experienced!
You better jejely die and go and rest than be sentenced to stay long inside a Nigerian prison...that place is meant for dogs and not for human beings l swear!

A word is enough for the wise!!!

This is not a case of kidnapping so there is no victim. And nobody is going home. If "phantom kidnapping" is not yet a crime in the books of Lagos State, they will all be charged with attempt to obtain under false pretences, wasting police time, and whatever else catches the prosecutor's fancy.

While others are trying to build some are tearing. A young American livestreamer Kai Cenat just commenced the building of a school in the Makoko of Lagos, just after visiting and discovering the condition there. But here are these ones using their own talent to fake their own kinapp just to dupe their family members their hard earned money 💰💸 shame!
