Hours after kidnappers abducted Mrs. Oluwatoyin Nwosu, the wife of the Sun Newspapers Deputy Managing Director, Mr. Steve Nwosu, from her Okota residence in Lagos, they contacted the family, demanding a ransom of N100 million in the first call they made.
Also, the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni has described the attack as an ‘armed robbery operation.
Owoseni who spoke to newsmen at his office in GRA, Ikeja, Lagos, today said the home of the senior journalist remains an active crime scene since his wife was held hostage.
He said, “Steve Nwosu was a victim of armed robbery attack. The place is still an active crime scene, so we are careful in order not to jeopardize investigation."

Now I understand and feel more 4 victims after they kidnapped my sister 2wks ago. The anxiety alone is enough to take a life. Everything happened in a flash and was just like a movie.
ReplyDeleteShe was released 2 days after, after we paid a whooping amount. We can only thank God 4 her safety as she came home unharmed. The experience was terrible both 4 d victim and his/her loved ones i wouldn't wish even an enemy. God used the enemy(one of d kidnappers) to work in our favour. Right now she is coming around cos the trauma is killing.
Ma fellow BVs make una follow me thank this great God oo cos d story might have been different. I can't stop sharing this great testimony.
Pray the victim comes out victorious cos when a loved one is held, u don't even remember the value of what they are demanding cos life means a lot more than that. Those boys ain't smiling at all.
May the plans of d devil fail as many times as they come. Chukwu dube anyi oo.
Thank God for u and ur family. Adversity will not rise again in ur household. I wish the same testimony for these ones
DeleteAmen
ReplyDeleteWhere is her husband suppose to get 100 million?
They want to use the 100 million to go and shine in the village and marry new okpekes.
ReplyDeleteGod will bring the woman back in Jesus name. Amen.
Did the family commit anything that warranted this?
@bunmi
ReplyDeletewhich of d clara might u b referring to?
100 million bawo? From where? And the stupid police said it's an armed robbery attack? Mtchewww.
ReplyDeleteMay God intervene.100million ke
ReplyDeleteIts saddening how Kidnapping has now become d order of d day.... Our youths need to b gainfully employe cos Idleness is really d devil"s work tool. I pray d Lord will cause confusion in d midst of d kidnappers n dey will let Mrs Toyin Nwosu return t her family wt lil or no ransom.
