Police Arrest Officers For Extorting N29M From Abuja Businessman

The police officers who were accused of abducting and extorting a businessman of N29.9M in January have been arrested.

The force spokesperson, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, disclosed this Tuesday, Feb. 6, through his X handle.

He tweeted, “We are making a headway on this matter, and justice will be served, as some suspects have been arrested. Hakuna matata.”

Back in January 2024, the businessman was abducted at one of his sites in Abuja by armed police officers who detained him until he transferred all the money in his bank account to them.

Subsequently, they insisted that he call his relatives and friends to keep sending money before he could be released.
