ABEOKUTA—The Inspector-General of Police,
IGP, Solomon Arase, yesterday in Ikenne, Ogun
State, said kidnapping cases in the country are
over-rated by citizens.
Arase, who spoke shortly after paying
condolence visit to the Awolowo family over the
death of their matriarch,HID Awolowo, said
statistics show that kidnapping in Nigeria was
still within manageable level compared to what
is happening in other countries.
He explained that Nigerians dwell more on
negative aspect than successes recorded so far
on the menace.
He however, assured that the Nigeria Police
Force would do its best to reduce the rising
cases of kidnapping across the country.
He said; “Let me debunk the impression that
there has been tremendous increase in the
issue of kidnapping in Nigeria. Kidnapping has
been there and we are doing our best to stem
the tide.
“Comparative figure outside Nigeria shows that
ours is still within manageable level. Whenever
it happens, we are able to arrest them and deal
with them.
“Criminals can’t overwhelm Nigerians.
Definitely, it will not happen under leadership.
We should not get apprehensive about this. I
can assure Nigerians that we are on top of the
situation and will make sure that we have a
secure environment.”
In his condolence, Arase described the late
Awolowo as a definition of everything that a
woman is supposed to be.
“She stood by Papa Awolowo all through his life
and even when he passed on. She protected his
ideals and was there for the children. She
ensured that the family remain united, that is
why everyone is celebrating her. She is a
woman of virtue.”
He assured the family that the police would
deplore his men and officers for a successful
funeral activities of their matriarch.
