The family of the abducted managing director of Bank of Agriculture, Alwan Hassan, has allegedly paid a huge sum of N100m to secure his release, close family sources told DAILY NIGERIAN.

Mr Hassan was released on Wednesday after spending about 10 days in captivity, following his abduction alongside hundreds of engers of Abuja-Kaduna train on March 28.

Although the terrorists had claimed that no ransom was paid in a short video taken with the mobile phone of the managing director, family sources said N100million was paid before they released him.

According to the source, the kidnappers earlier sent the family the video of the harrowing experience the captives were facing, including Mr Hassan, in order to raise the ransom stake.

“A few days earlier, they sent the video of their harrowing condition in order to raise their stake. Alwan was always saying ‘give them whatever amount they want’. So the family gave them what they insisted on… that is N100million,” said one of the family sources.

According to the source, the kidnappers first asked the family to take the money to a forest in Katsina on Tuesday before asking them to make a detour to another forest in Kaduna.

The source added that after the family emissaries journeyed for hours in the bush, the gunmen appeared fully armed in their hundreds and collected the money.

Hummmmmm... Boko Haram turned bandits, Buhari is a total failure

Elrufai said that nobody should give any ransome to the bandits and never shared any idea or what he's putting into place to manage the rising bandits and terrorists attack in his face ...



I believe that, he's what he's been called..... The short man devil....

Said this on the other thread and so many doubted.

With this revelation, the Bandits recruitment form just sold out, because of the rush to get it by aspiring Bandits.

Welcome to Buhari's Nigeria.
Funny thing is the kidnapped and his family were "sai" ing Buhari in 2015 & 2019
Good they are now enjoying their Buhari.

Let's keep "sai" ing Buhari & blaming ipob for everything in this life.
E go reach all APC miscreants one after the other

Modified: but come to think of it,"what if" a big "what if" this same bank of industry guy has a stake in this & this is all well planned abduction for him,not the other abducted travellers? I can't trust any single Fulani man again now.

I don't wanna talk about Buhari's government. Ofcourse we are under a terrorist's regime

Northern business is booming!
Alhamdillilah!

How much is this man worth to pay 100m without breaking a sweat

Choi

This will definitely encourage other bandit gangs.

And those whose relatives can't afford what uthman Dan fodio descendants ( bandits/terrorists) are asking for.....
What becomes their fate

Omo!!!

This is going on unabated and what the government and DSS is more concerned about is how to regulate the preachings by clerics that tend to portray the government in bad light

Who says crime doesn't pay?

Of course.
Whoever believed no ransom was paid.

Someone up there was asking how the man could raise 100m without breaking a sweat. A director in a federal government establishment? A northerner for that matter. Getting the ransom together was the easiest part.

Buhari will handle security,
Osibanjo will handle the economy

Big cash out by bandits the reason why it why banditry will never end

How you expect someone that made N100m in one week to go farming again or revert to N30/mth is another wonder of the world.

The only army that can destroy bokoharam is the people and a refreshed trust in Government, the people cant fight it unless they are United, unity wont come unless there is justice, justice wont come unless there is equity, equity and refreshed trust in Govt wont come unless you have the right president devoid of corruption and held in high esteem to lead Nigeria in 2023. Until we find that person, Northern Kaduna will always tell Southern Kaduna it's not there problem..

This event has the hands of some of the government officials in it.Nigeria is becoming something else.

It is well.

Chai! He did not even negotiate .
He must be a very big Thief.
He might be the kind of person that will sue you if you accuse him of a N10m fraud.
Those in power saying they would not pay ransom to kidnappers are the same people making a business out of it thereby making it lucrative.
The people our politicians impoverished are forcing the money out of them.

Hmm,

More money for Boko Haram bandits to buy sophisticated weapons

I think it is same money intercepted by soldiers here

I knew it that Tinubu lied earlier

This is why we should not trust the Wereybas

How did they come about such a huge sum?
they must be investigated

Only 100m?
May be his net worth is not up to 500m

Probably the same money seized by Nigeria army

Nigeria is a joke
