Singer, Seun Kuti has asserted that the Nigerian Police are consistently involved in any significant kidnapping operation.
In a surprising disclosure, Seun Kuti stated that he discovered the complicity of the Nigerian Police in kidnapping through a recently circulated video.
He recalled being arrested and confined to cell one, meant for serious criminals, instead of cell two, usually reserved for celebrities.
While in cell one, he discovered that the police play a key role in every kidnapping organization in Nigeria, often serving as the mastermind. He further disclosed that the police have abducted the majority of Nigerians.
He explained kidnapping as the act of being forcibly taken against one’s will and then requiring payment for release.
