[Shola Sholaz]

COMMISSIONER of Police, Delta State, Mr. Ikechukwu Aduba, has said there was a new trend in kidnapping in the state, in which children conspire with kidnap syndicates to demand and collect ransom from their parents.
.
Speaking to Vanguard in an interview, he said from the series of kidnap cases investigated by the police, the emerging pattern showed involvement of insiders.
.
Aduba, who described the development as shocking, said: "Brothers now plot and kidnap brothers in the state to extort money from their parents, while children set up their parents for kidnappers."
.
He, however, said "there is no state that it is crime free. It is not where you have one or two crimes, you generalize it that there is crime everywhere. We have a very strong anti-crime mechanism in the state.
.
Twenty four hours, our men on always on the street."
.
According to him, "recently in the state, a kidnapped victim in Warri and all of them who kidnapped him, including an undergraduate, were found to be children of same parents.

Kidnapping is something that should in no way be encouraged in this country...It's a bad reputation for us and Africa! Too bad....
