Orekoyas: Maid Demands N15m Ransom On Kidnapped Kids

The nanny, Mary Akinloye, who allegedly kidnapped three children from their home in Surulere has demanded a ransome of N15m from the victim’s parents.

PUNCH METRO reports that the family was contacted on Thursday by the suspect and others, who were suspected to be members of her group to demand the ransom.

A family friend, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the kidnappers contacted the family and demanded N15m on Thursday.

The information was confirmed by another friend who put up the post on a social medium, Facebook.

He said, “Is it a crime to employ a house help? The kidnappers have demanded N15m.”

Efforts to reach the family were abortive as they continued to reject calls made to their lines.

They also did not reply to three text messages sent to them on the matter.

The Police Public Relations, Kenneth Nwosu, said investigations were on.

He said, “Investigations are on and that is all I can say for now.

“There are things you do that can jeopardise investigation.

“What is important in a case like this is to ensure that the children are returned hale and hearty. There are information you may have and if you disclose it, you could break the line of communication. So, we are still on the matter to ensure the safe return of the kids.”
