The Police operatives attached to the State Criminal Investigations Department CID, of the Lagos Command have arrested the duo of 22 years old Precious Chukwu, female, and 18 years old Ujunwa Offiah, female for conspiring with one 26 years old Ifesinachi Blessed, male of Coker area of Lagos State, to stage a kidnapping case.
The duo are girlfriends to the mastermind, Ifesinachi, who was an UBER driver but presently at large.
The fleeing suspect, Ifesinachi, has kept Ujunwa at a place and placed calls across to her family that she had been kidnapped. He pretended as a kidnapper and demanded a ransom of N30m.
They eventually negotiated, with the help of his other girlfriend, Precious Chukwu, and agreed to pay him N700,000 before he “released” Ujunwa.
The Police swung into action and later discovered that it was a staged kidnapping, and they were immediately arrested.
Lagos State Commissioner of Police has ordered that the fleeing suspect be arrested.
