BUSTED!:SSS Arrested King Of Kidnappers At Port-Harcourt.
There were indications on Wednesday that
a major financier of a kidnapping ring in
Edo and other surrounding states, Kelvin
Oburuvbe might have been arrested by
men of the Department of State Security.
It was reliably gathered that the kidnap
kingpin was picked up in Port-Harcourt,
Rivers State, by operatives of DSS and is
currently being interrogated.
There were however conflicting reports that
the arrested kidnapper might be the one
who recently issued a 60-day ultimatum to
the Federal Government to declare amnesty
for him and his gang, otherwise his group
would blow up oil installations in Urobo
speaking areas of the country.
It was further gathered that Oburuvbe was
instrumental to the recent abduction of
human rights lawyer, Mike Ozekhome, his
driver and a leader of the All Progressives
Congress, Chief Athansius Ugbome on
Saturday, August 24, 2013.
Ozekhome and Ugbome were released about one week
apart after over two weeks in the
kidnappers’s den and payment of ransom.
Although the Edo State SSS Director, Bello
Bakori, could not be reached, a source
close to his office confirmed that Oburuvbe
was trailed from his hideout after a tip-off,
before his arrest by the operatives of the
Department of State Security.
The source said the operatives had been on
Oburuvbe trail for more than two years,
adding that the kidnap kingpin lives abroad
and only comes back to the state whenever
he has any abduction operation to carry
out.
“We have been on his trail for more than
two years. He is responsible for most of the
high profile kidnap in the state.
The latest is the kidnap of Chief Mike Ozekhome in
August this year,” the source said.
The kidnapping czar, according to
investigation, operates several abduction
camps in Edo State, where victims are kept
before their families are contacted to pay
ransom.
