The suspects thereafter, took the boy to their apartment around Jerry Street, Ojokoro, from where they put a call to his apprehensive father, demanding for N4 million ransom.<\/p>\n

His father, a driver with one of the new generation banks, was said to have pleaded with N55,000, which the kidnappers instructed him to pay into an account, before the boy was eventually released after three days.<\/p>\n

But the bubble burst for the brothers, as unknown to them, the little boy had picked one of their passport\u00a0 photographs while in their custody, which was\u00a0 taken to policemen at Owutu division.<\/p>\n
