A 25-year-old suspected kidnapper, Musa Shaibu, has confessed to plotting an escape abroad with his share of a N20million ransom after abducting a 14-year-old boy in Lagos State.

Shaibu, a member of a five-man kidnapping gang, was arrested by operatives of the Lagos State Police Command in the Ajegunle area after allegedly abducting the teenage son of a Bureau De Change operator, identified as Hassan, from their residence in Olodi-Apapa.

According to Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Benjamin Hundeyin, the gang demanded N20 million for the boy’s release.

“Our intention was not to harm the boy, but to collect the sum of N20 million from his rich father,” Shaibu told investigators.

 “I would have travelled overseas with my own share of the money.”

Hundeyin said the arrest followed a report lodged by the victim’s father on May 1, 2025.
“Detectives of the command were immediately deployed to the ransom collection point at a filling station near Wema Bridge in Apapa, where one of the suspects, Musa Shaibu, was apprehended,” he said.

Further investigations led the police to a hotel in Ajegunle, where the victim was rescued unhurt.

However, the manager of the hotel was also arrested and taken into custody for questioning.

The victim has since been reunited with his family, while police say investigations are ongoing to apprehend the remaining gang members.
