Torkwase Queen Ayakpa
The police has paraded a 37-year-old woman, Torkwase Queen Ayakpa who faked her own kidnap in Abuja.
She was arrested by men of the FCT police command for staging her own kidnap because she wanted to find out if her sister loves her.
Ayakpa was one of 24 suspects paraded by the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) police command for various offenses on Wednesday, July 29.
Ayakpa, who is a hairstylist, conspired with one Fidelis Ikule, 36, to stage her kidnap. She told the police that she also did it to extort N20, 000 from her sister because her hairstyling business was no longer doing well due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Ayakpa, a native of Benue state and Fidelis, were arrested after the police traced the calls they were making for the ransom to Fidelis’s house in Mashafa Village, Mpape, Abuja, where they were holing up.
