By Modupe Shodeinde
The Ekiti State Security Network Agency (with the codename Amotekun Corps) had arrested a suspected kidnapper, disguised in a military uniform.
The Corps Commander, Brig. Gen Joe Komolafe(retd.) on Monday said that the suspect was arrested during a routine patrol at the IFaki Ekiti in Ido/Osi Local Government area.
He said that the suspect “was dressed in military uniform and coming out from the bush. Initially, he identified himself as Adebayo Damola and later, he gave his name as Emmanuel Tunde. You can see the inconsistency. He is never a military man but a suspected kidnapper.
“Upon interrogation, he claimed to be from Kogi State and a vulcanizer residing in Oye Ekiti. When asked about his mission in Ifaki, he said he was coming from Ado Ekiti where he went to attend the Man ‘O War interview.”
The Corps Commander said further investigation revealed that the suspect was in possesion of several military items which he said was given to him by a military man in Lagos.
