In Edo State, a 19-year-old woman was apprehended for collaborating with her boyfriend to abduct an elderly pastor.
The state Commissioner of Police, CP Funsho Adegboye, revealed that the young woman, who identified herself as a student, visited the pastor's residence with accomplices.
She deceived the pastor into unlocking his gate by pretending to be in distress and claiming to be the wife of a church member.
‘’She was crying that she needed help from the pastor that they should please open the gate for her and that she is the wife of one of the church members. That is the lie she told the pastor. As soon as the pastor opened the door for her, other members of the kidnapping group hijacked the pastor at gunpoint and took the man away.”
The Commissioner advised parents to keep an eye on their children and wards, as well as check what they do and the kind of friendships they maintain.
‘’She saw one of the suspects giving the gun to her boyfriend. According to her, it was her boyfriend who lured her into this criminal activity. It is quite unfortunate that a 19-year-old girl! People should be careful”.
When questioned, the suspect claimed ignorance of the crime and that she was coerced into participating in the unlawful action.
