The Ekiti State police command has arrested a 16-year-old girl, Abimbola Suluka alongside her boyfriend, Oluwaseun Olajide for alleged conspiracy and self-kidnapping. Abimbola was said to have conspired with her 25-year-old boyfriend and two of his friends to stage the abduction to raise money. In a statement on Friday, the spokesperson of the state Command, Sunday Abutu, said Abimbola’s sister had gone to the police station to report that her sister was missing after leaving the house for school. According to Abutu, the sister explained that when Abimbola’s phone was called, an unknown person answered the call and informed them that she was in his custody and would not release her until a ransom of N500,000 was paid. However, luck ran against the suspects when the owner of the account given for the ransom payment was tracked and arrested by the anti-kidnapping unit of the police, and forced to lead the police operatives to a hotel within the state capital, where Abimbola and her boyfriend were nabbed. Abimbola with the three others confessed to committing the crime, claiming she wanted to raise money from her family members to enable her to relocate from Ekiti State since her mother insisted she studies medicine as against her dream of becoming an actress.
