One Ade Bash has taken to social media to reveal how his 65-year-old father’s driver staged his own kidnapping in order to extort money from his family.

According to Ade, his father quickly beamed his searchlight and alerted Amotekun security (a security outfit based in all the six states of the South Western, Nigeria, responsible for curbing insecurity in the region), who promptly launched a rescue mission.

He said that the alleged kidnappers were all apprehended within 12 hours, only to find out that the whole drama was planned by the driver.

The incident was said to have happened at Obafemi Owode area of Ogun state, Ade revealed.

Ade Bash, on the other hand, reiterated that the driver and his associate have all been apprehended and are currently being held at the police station.

His Twitter post reads;

“My dad’s driver was purportedly kidnapped today by alleged Fulani herdsmen, Dad beam his searchlight immediately, he involved the Amotekun, they started the rescue mission. Lo! and Behold! They caught the purported kidnappers within 12hrs and we found out that the driver staged…his own kidnapping. They have all been arrested and now at the police station.
