Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, said, most of the reported kidnap incidents in the area are phony.
Wike made this claim on Wednesday in Abuja in an interview with newsmen while coming out of a closed-meeting with Senators on security situation in FCT.
“Most of the kidnapping stories you hear, some of them are stage-managed. There are some internal arrangements.
“You have a housekeeper or a driver who would plot to kidnap the child of their boss. In such a case, what do you expect us to do?
“What we can do is to ensure that the person kidnapped is released,” the minister told the enquirers.
He also related what transpired between him and the Senators saying, “I am glad they are all happy with what we have done, what we are going to be doing and they provided some suggestions on the way forward.”
