The State Security Service has arrested a
father of 10, Saturday Dewakei, who allegedly kidnapped Abubakar Adamu,
the five-year-old son of his neighbour and killed him when his demand
for a N5m ransom was not met.
Dewakei, 43, was said to have entered
his neighbour’s room at Aso ‘C’ Gbagalape, Mararaba area of Abuja
through the ceiling on April 19, 2013 and abducted Adamu while he was
asleep. The SSS tendered the remains of the
victim on Wednesday, which were mainly bones, including his ribs, femur,
dental cavity and a locally-made pistol that was recovered from the
suspect.
