Jos pastor arrested for kidn@pping himself twice and collecting ransom from his church members.
Police operatives in Plateau State have arrested a pastor, identified as Albarka Sukuya, for allegedly kidn@pping himself twice and collecting ransom from his church members.
The command’s spokesperson, Alfred Alabo, in a statement on Wednesday, January 11, said the suspect staged his kidn@p to d¥pe unsuspecting persons. “The Police has uncovered the nefarious act of one Pastor Albarka Sukuya of Jenta Apata, Jos, who on several occasions staged his kidn@p with his cohorts and received ransom from sympathising members of his congregation.
Sequel to his spurious kidn@ps of Nov. 14 and Nov. 15, 2022, where N400,000 and N200,000, respectively, were paid by his sympathisers as ransom for his release, the incidents trigg£red suspicion.
Through credible intelligence, the clergyman was invited by the DPO Nasarawa Gwong Police Station, CSP Musa Hassan and investigation commenced immediately.
