The Nigeria Police Force Criminal Investigation Department in Alagbon, Lagos, has announced the arrest of several individuals allegedly involved in an attempt to kidnap Nigerian musician Tiwa Savage.
CSP Oluniyi Ogundeyi, the department’s spokesperson, confirmed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday in Lagos.
According to reports, the news of the attempted kidnapping first surfaced on social media platforms.
The reports revealed that the musician was saved from the suspects by her private security vigilance and the Nigerian police.
The failed plot was allegedly planned by Savage’s new domestic staff, who had been entrusted with vital information about her.
Sources said that the domestic staff had been trailing the singer as she left her home and shared the information with other members of the alleged kidnapping gang.
In response to inquiries, Ogundeyi confirmed the arrests, stating that “Yes, we have some suspects, they are in our custody. They are about four.”
The investigation is ongoing, and the police have assured the public that they are committed to bringing all involved parties to justice.
