Regains freedom
After millions of Naira changed hands
And no abductors arrested
Then we wait for the next abduction
And the cycle continues

What a balablu bulaba! 😁

After paying ransome, Nigeria is in the wrong hands.

The beast they were feeding has turned against them.....

He should go for second term

He should give account of what he witnessed with his kidnappers

Another lamba.

They keep taking credit for what they didn't do using nuances and semantics. They must have rescued him from the exchange point.

Trump is coming for you all

That is why the kebbi state governor organized prayers ..prayers against insecurity in the state all because a politician.. kebbi deputy speaker has been kidnapped.. but when the poor people are kidnapped nothing is organized.. they will not even care about the poor kidnapped victims..

That is why you government in power should address and tackle.. poverty, hunger, hardship, inflation, high costs of living, high rate of unemployment, for they say an idle mind is the devil's workshop and an hungry man is an angry man...so that the insecurity, kidnapping, banditry does not get to Nigerians and also to the politicians and government officials

What kinda Mockery is this after the man paid ransom and you are saying security operatives rescue him

🇳🇬 .

There is a significant and credible fear unchecked, these non-state actors will continue to escalate their activities, potentially overrunning local administrations and making terrorism a daily, routine occurrence.

The tragic reality is that the masses are the primary victims of this escalating insecurity. The recent abduction of a high-ranking official, such as the Deputy Speaker of Kebbi State, serves as a stark and humiliating example of the security forces' operational failings. This incident highlights a severe vulnerability within even the most protected circles.

If individuals of such prominence and protection can be targeted, it signals an even greater danger and potential for suffering for the general populace.

The police did a great work to secure the safe return of the Deputy Speaker, due to credible intelligence gathering. In fact, no ransom was paid 😂

How could such a high-profile figure be abducted despite the state’s intensified security measures?
