A suspected kidnapper, Solomon
Michael, who was paraded alongside
four others at the Lagos State Police
command, Ikeja, has confessed that
he plotted the kidnap of his boss
because she maltreated him.

alongside Ibrahim Sozza, Thankgod
Husseni, Paul Brutus and Suleiman
Mohammed, for allegedly robbing
and kidnapping one Alhaja Modupe
Idris, a business tycoon in Idumota
and her sister, Alhaja Risikat
Laminu, said: “I plotted to rob and
kidnap my boss because she was
maltreating me.
It was one Emmanuel who organised
four others that assisted me in
carrying out the robbery and
kidnapping. After the operation,
Emmanuel and his gang gave me the
Toyota SUV, smart phone and one I-
pad as my share of the loot.
“Immediately I collected it, Ibrahim
and I travelled to Jos, Plateau State
to meet Thankgod Husseni, who we
earlier told about the operation.
It was Husseni that helped us sell our
loot. He sold the SUV to one Brutus
for N400, 000.”
It was learned that sometime in
September, 2015, Solomon arranged
the kidnap of Alhaja Idris, who
employed him as her driver.
He had worked for her for two years.
To perfect his plans, he connived
with Emmanuel, a leader of an
armed robbery gang, who is now at
large to assist him kidnap Alhaja
Modupe.
It was gathered that on September
30, Emma and his gang trailed
Alhaja from her shop to Surulere
area in Lagos, at 9:30p.m., where
they hit her vehicle from the back
feigning an accident.
Immediately her driver, Solomon
stopped the vehicle to check the
extent of damage the accident
caused, the gang struck, robbed and
kidnapped Alhaja Modupe, her sister,
Alhaja Laminu and her house maid,
who were inside a black Toyota SUV
with number plate LSR871BM. They
also collected N1.2 million, and other
valuables from her before taking
them to a bush somewhere at Ijebu-
Ode area.
