An alleged kidnappers den has been discovered and done away with
in Abia state, as the state government demolished a building belonging to one
Ogbuonye Ogbonna Daniel from Umuariaga Oboro, Ikwuano, due to his alleged
involvement in kidnapping activities. The Security Adviser to Abia State
Governor/State Task Force Chairman, Capt. Awa Udonsi Agwu (Rtd.), said the
measure was to serve as deterrent to other kidnappers and those nursing the
idea to enter the illicit business.
He said that the state government abhorred kidnapping and
would stop at nothing to stamp the menace out of the state. according to him, other
kidnappers who have properties in the state will have them pulled down once the
government identifies such property.
Meanwhile, residents of Umuariaga, who spoke on condition of
anonymity, have applauded the state government for embarking on the demolition
exercise, pointing out that they have been living in fear due to the activities
of some suspected kidnappers operating in the area.
