A viral video circulating on X has sparked outrage after claims that a man, Adawari Samuel Ogolo, was detained by suspected kidnappers he allegedly hired to abduct his elder brother and sister in Rivers State.
According to the video, Ogolo was in contact with the suspected kidnappers to arrange the operation when the situation turned against him. The group reportedly refused to carry out the attack on his brother, Tammy Samuel Ogolo, describing him as “a good man with a kind heart.”
Adawari Samuel Ogolo was identified in the video as the first son of the second wife of Senior Pastor Samuel Ogolo, founder of a church in Port Harcourt. The claims further allege that the kidnappers are now demanding N10 million for his release.
