He added that the two girls also threatened the monarch of the town to pay the ransom within 24 hours or ‘they would kill the abductees in their custody.’
The Amotekun Corps boss, who also doubles as the Special Adviser, Security Matters to Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, said that the teenagers were nabbed through a joint operation with the operatives of the State Security Service (SSS) after tracking the telephone line being used by the girls.
In an interrogation with journalists, the youngest of the two sisters said they spent a night in their grandma’s house and left there around 6:00 a.m. after they had left the house.
“We left the house because my mother used to behave to us as if she was not the one who gave birth to me and decided to collect money from her,” she said.
