Kidnappers Of Maharazu Tsiga Demand ₦250M Ransom by Leobankx(op): 9:58am On Feb 08, 2025
Abductors of the former Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, Retired General Maharazu Tsiga, have demanded a N250 million ransom as a condition for his release.

DAILY POST recalls that Gen Tsiga was kidnapped on Wednesday night following the invasion of his residence in Katsina State by over 100 gunmen.

According to a member representing Bakori/Danja federal constituency Katsina State, Abdullahi Balarabe Dabai, the attackers after surrounding the house, began to break doors, a situation that prompted the general to come out and asked them what they were looking for.

Security operatives had launched a manhunt for his release from the captivity of the assailants.

A source close to the family who preferred anonymity, told Daily Trust on Friday that the family was contacted and N250 million was requested.

I don't really think Nigeria can work as one country, it is better to divide this country, you can't force unity

Omorr.

Now I think strict and stringent penalty should be enacted to curb and stop this menace of kidnappings in our dear country. The Penalty should be Death without Trial. Once caught, kill them at once. Nothing like Court trials or remand or jail. Shoot and kill Dem then dump their bodies in River Benue

This shows that Nigeria is a shithole. A 1-star General is kidnapped and they fucking had the audacity to demand for ransom of a quarter billion?

Unfortunately, the money will be paid and everyone will move on like it never happened. Tomorrow, more people will be kidnapped just because of that! Government keep breeding new criminals daily by indulging them.

We can work as a country. The leaders have destroyed the little unity left and its takes a dedicated and selfless people to be in government and change things. An average Nigerian is now what the leaders are.

I see the appeal, but the law exists for a reason. Start with this and we're one stone throw away from utter chaos.

Tinubu and his co-travellers who want to capture revenue earned from harlotry and kidnapping shouldn't forget to include this 250 million when rebasing the economy.
Re: Kidnappers Of Maharazu Tsiga Demand ₦250M Ransom by Kingpele(m):
Too bad ....I think death penalty is good for kidnappers and those who steal public funds and 30years imprisonment for supporters of those who steal public funds

250M? These people ransom are too outrageous abi because I don't have 1M in my account?
Re: Kidnappers Of Maharazu Tsiga Demand ₦250M Ransom by kheny12(m): 12:27pm On Feb 08, 2025
They have seen kidnapping as a business. The government are not serious. Assuming they are kidnapping the governments and their families, they would have been serious in tackling this kidnapping issue.

Who controls and pays over 100 gunmen?
Re: Kidnappers Of Maharazu Tsiga Demand ₦250M Ransom by Smartcitizen:
Hmmmm!

They should hold BUHARI to pay that money because there was nothing like kidnapping and ransom payment in Katsina before that idiot came from the bush and this nonsense started.

Kidnapping is now a full time business in the North.

Keep justifying criminalities.

I hope you also say this when it happens to you.

If a whole former General of the Nigerian Army is being kidnapped, then that means the ordinary citizens are not safe at all.

Is this a joke or what?
This is what you get when you are selective in applying punishment.
People that should be crushed in the first place

What difference will it make? ... except each tribe/religion be terrorizing its own and not another? The country is not even divided .... Kanu and Ekpa were already terrorizing their own people. What will happen if the country is divided?
