Three children have been kidnapped by two tenants less than 24hrs after moving into a new apartment at Itsekiri street in Ajuwon, Ogun state.
The two women who are in their 30s moved into a one-room apartment in the compound.
An eyewitness stated that they claimed to be students in a school in Ikeja, Lagos and they would be staying in the apartment for 3weeks.
The women had reportedly acted friendly with everyone in the compound.
The suspects left with the 3 children on the pretext that they were visiting a shop in the neighborhood with them.
The case has been reported to the Ajuwon police station.
The state police spokesperson, Abimbola Oyeyemi confirming the incident said that the case was under investigation.
âWe heard about it. The case is under investigation. The kidnappers came to rent an apartment in that building. They recently packed into that place and other occupants of the house never knew that they had a game plan.
âSince they came into the house, they started playing with all these children, showing signs of a good neighbour. The parents relaxed thinking that are good people, not until they ran away with about three kids from that place.â
