THE Directorate of the State Security Service (DSS) has foiled attempts by two suspects to kidnap one of the daughters of the late former president, Alhaji Umaru Yar’Adua, in Abuja, as it also arrested two kingpins who plotted the abduction, with four others said to be on the run.
The spokesperson of the service, Marilyn Ogar, who paraded the two suspects, Hamza Abubakar and Lawrence Okoro Dennis, said the gang had plotted to kidnap one of the daughters of the late former president at a construction site at Kado, a suburb of Abuja, before the operatives of the service, acting on a tip-off, struck.
