With what appears a seize in the jamboree of kidnappings that have swept and ravaged the light of the nation, Anambra State, new and explosive information recently made available to correspondents of Ukpakareports.com reveal a jolting ordeal that had been kept under wraps by the office of the Inspector General of Nigeria and his team of police officers for months while named culprits continue their practice emboldened and undeterred.
In a September 30th 2009 memorandum to the Assistant Inspector General of Police [Intelligence] from the Inspector General of Nigeria signed by Greg F. Esele [ACP – Principal Staff Officer 111 to Inspector General of Police] and referenced CB:7000/IGP.SEC/ABJ/VOL.339/80, the IGP wrote on the subject line “Situation Report 1 & Situation Report 2 on highly placed kidnappers in Anambra State” stating that “I forward herewith copy of the petition dated 24th September 2009 with its attachments received from Okey Ojibe in the above underlined subject for your information. The Inspector General of police directs you treat, please.”
What smacks maliciously interesting are the revealing contents of Situation Report 1 & 2 – which arrived on the desks of the IGP's office roughly a month before the notorious kidnappings of Pa. Simeon Soludo and Comedian/Actor Nkem Owoh. The Situation Reports enumerated the kidnappers and their paymasters. The Report also pleaded/recommended with the IGP “that all the cases at present being handled by men of the Anambra State special Anti-Robbery Squad [SARS] be transferred to the Federal SARS or the general investigation.” The report went to itemize “the list of some highly connected criminals whose cases need to be handled at a higher level to avoid any travesty of justice.”
