Remember that President Tinubu recently said that the Federal Government would not pay a ransom to free victims who had been kidnapped?
The minister went on to say that President Tinubu has directed security services to step up their efforts to put an end to the nationwide kidnapping threat.
“The President has also charged security agencies to make sure kidnappings are brought to a halt, and all the perpetrators of kidnapping will be fished out and punished,” Idris said.
