Ogun Police Command has arrested one Tohebat Adebayo for simulating own kidnap in conspiracy with her boyfriend, Afolabi Ogunremi ( 30).
Tohebat, 20, was said to have stage managed her abduction ostensibly to raise N200, 000 and fund her forthcoming birth day bash.
It was learnt that she left home for Lafenwa market, Abeokuta, but never returned which prompted the parents to go searching for her and later reported the case at the Lafenwa Police Divisional Headquarters.
In a statement by the Police Public Relations Officer, Abimbola Oyeyemi, said that an unknown man called the parents to inform them on phone that their daughter has been kidnapped.
Abimbola added that the caller demanded the sum of N200, 000 as Ransom from the girl’s parents to effect release from the kidnappers.
“Based on the report by the parents, the Divisiobal Police Officer, kayode Ayilara, led detectives to an abandoned house inside the Government Reservation Area where the girl was being kept.
“The discovery led to the arrest of Adebayo who happened to be the security man in the house.
“On interrogation, Adebayo claimed to be the boyfriend of the girl and that they both planned to simulate her kidnap in order to raise money for her forthcoming Birthday from the parents,” Abimbola said.
According the Police Image Maker in the state, the commissioner of police, Ahmed iliyasu, has ordered that the case be transferred to the Command’s anti-kidnapping and cultists for further investigation.

Nigerian youths are becoming exceedingly and increasingly criminal minded at an early age. From the one arrested with human body parts recently to the ones now staging their own kidnap – see where the excessive lust for quick money is taking our society? Rather than competing with the world in the fields of innovative technology and science, our youths are committing crimes that are shocking to the human conscience, such as partaking in ritual killings and kidnap. See where examples of hailing and honoring of thieves with ill-gotten wealth and having the wrong priorities in life is taking our future generations? Good luck, Nigeria!
