Idiotic unprofessional criminals.

If not for stupid£y, do they think someone who has 100 million naira sitting around would risk his/her life traveling on a shyty bus? undecided


I even thought d N100 mil was for d whole passengers. Idi#tic mumu kidnappers, na greed go Una kill U, bastard's! undecided
I was actually wondering the same thing oh. grin

If those passengers had ₦100 million and even if they don't want to travel by air, they will be able to afford military escort in a private convoy. Who the hell will enter public transport having that kind of money.

@Seun, your ineptitude is allowing all forms of bigots run amok on your plat form and need I remind you, that you are equally liable and encourages such due to your silence and indifference. We are all preaching one Nigeria yet you have toddlers pushing tribal bigotry on a daily. My simple advise to you. Please sit up to your responsibilities.
Thank you.
Seun pays them to be tribalistic in any news posted here, even if the news has nothing to do with ethnicity they'd find a way and drop a bigotry comment in other to cause traffic. He pays them

people that post like you and pride about it on faceless social media has nothing meaningful doing in real life.

I have once been a victim in that same road. As a dangote cement corper 2017.

It's the kogi state government I'll blame. This kidnapping activities has been going on in years in that same road but the state government has never done nothing about it
ok next news 🤣🤣

Zulum, Atiku and Northern Government will not see the rising insecurity happening in their region.
With all the free money they been getting for years, nothing to show for it.
What is tinubus job?

Which money has atiku been receiving?

Are atiku and zulum responsible for security in kogi and in Nigeria as a whole?

You just can't label a whole company as criminals just like that.
The Yarimo guy is taking it as a joke (stretched too far on Nairaland), by the time you (Yarimo) are invited by relevant authorities on related issues you have be commenting on sarcastically, then you will know there is a thing line between jokes and National security issues.
The Nation is boiling, Yarimo be warned!!!

It's not difficult to imagine that it is because they have more situational awareness and 'experience' (first or second hand) about what to do in this unfortunate situation than the average passenger does. And greater mobility too, since they can more easily open their doors and take flight before passengers locked in the passenger compartment begjn to fiddle with the slider door amidst all the chaos and desperation.
Ok, I get the picture now

Zulum has been speaking about the effects of the new tax bill on the North, is kogi not part of the north huh
What is the biggest issue facing the North today, is it no in security.
Did I say Atiku has been receiving money undecided

Tinubu Job is to provide security and the governor's job is to provide security too. The FG share security vote to each state and the governor's pocket those money, that money is to assist security agencies with what ever they need to carry out their jobs.
Please point were I said Atiku has been receiving money in my statement undecided
Atiku and Zulum have appointed themselves has spokesman for the North recently and they should also speak about the security situation too.

I don't know what is happening with God is good motor. Everytime kidnapping passengers from that company. Is so suspicious.
Simple economics. GIGM is not a Kabu-kabi bus . GIGM is perceived to be for rich people. Which used to be the case.

Again Yarimo, I am warning you, be careful this is a National security affairs. do not think this is a faceless forum.
Refrain from comments that are capable of inciting national insecurity (all in the name of jokes and likes).
For your information, there may be DSS, CTU agents, Army generals (I guess you are surprise to know this) to mention but few on this forum, all geared towards first hand intelligence gatherings.

A word they say is enough for the wise

that will just be a temporary measure,just like applying first aid,I believe what Mr Peter obi said that rising poverty , undeveloped human capital and economic hardship is a national security risk

You are better off borrowing money and traveling by air than risking road travel cos if you are kidnapped, you'd pay way more than the cost of an air ticket to secure your release.

Some would say abduction dint happen every day and theyd be lucky but that is like a game of Russian Roulette! You'll eventually pull the trigger that fires the shot!

This is why I didn't hesitate to buy a ticket for the nanny going home for Xmas! I don't want to hear that they were abducted and now have to find millions for ransom.

It is the best road transport company in Nigeria with maximum comfort for passengers.

There fee is also at premium when compared to others thereby making it no 1 choice for the middle class .
So the kidnappers know the class of people that patronize God is Good and hence they have become a target for kidnapping

I thought they had eliminated these bandits. I hope the government of the day will be alive to its responsibility by ensuring the safety of lives and property this season.

Hmmm, so bad! Insecurity is so much on the rise in the country presently. Always pray for God's guidance and protection as you step out everyday.

I wanted to attack you for been tribalistic with your comments but you are right

How come only the driver was spared?

GIGM should be avoided by all means by passengers. There is something they are not telling us

Eriokanmi:
and what if he had been killed, what would you have said? If you sight kidnappers, just try and make a u-turn and see if they'd not open fire. But if you cooperate with them, they'd not hurt you as a driver.
The driver cooperated and they just let him off?
