Policemen Arrested, Detained over Okonjo-Iweala's Mother Kidnap
The Commissioner of Police in Delta State, Ikechukwu Aduba, on Tuesday said that the command was not party to any negotiation for ransom over the kidnap of Prof. Kamene Okonjo, and that efforts are on top gear to rescue the Octogenarian from her abductors.
"We cannot cover up anybody, investigations were carried out and the two police officers who were supposed to be on duty are now in detention."
The commissioner, who urged wealthy Nigerians with "hostage value" to always watch their backs, said “There is a 24-hour patrol in this state and within five minutes of getting distress a call we are there, the kidnap of the Queen is an unfortunate incident.
“We have been doing our best, the state criminal investigation and the State Anti Robbery Squad (SARS) have been able to round up 20 kidnappers of four separate gang.
“We rescued some victims yesterday at Akukwu-Igbo in Oshimili North Local Government Area. Also Thursday last week, we intercepted a gang of kidnappers that were heading toward Ogwashi-Uku and we recovered their guns."
He also advised residents of the state to endeavour to report any suspicious movement around them.
