Abdullahi Usman (AKA Kadiri) on Monday gave a vivid narration of how
he helped to pinpoint “a big man who goes to his farm in Toyota Hilux van” who could be kidnapped to provide Sallah and wedding funds to some of his friends.Narrating the genesis and finale of how Chief Olu Falae was abducted in his farm last month
while he and another suspect Babawuro Kato by operatives of the
Department of State Security (DSS) at their headquarters in Abuja, Usman
said he was approached by some of his friends in Kwara State shortly
before the last Eid El-Kabir during a wedding ceremony.Usman continued that one Datijo approached him complaining that he
was so broke that he might not be able to satisfactorily celebrate the
coming festival unless he (Usman) was able to give information on any
big man that could be abducted for money.
“I then told him that I know one man who used to bring aHilux vehicle
to his farm and I used to see him as I move my cows about”, he told
reporters.
That was how the gang members arranged to kidnap Chief Falae on his farm on Monday, September 21, 2015.Usman said they then took Falae to Owo where he was kept at a place
called ‘Pipeline’ around Benin junction where the man was kept.
Eventually, the ransom of N5 million was paid to Datijo who according to Usman made away with the money.
