Security forces in Taraba State have launched a manhunt for a security guard accused of abducting his employer’s two-year-old son and demanding ransom.
The incident was reported late on Sunday, September 21, 2025, by the victim’s mother, Mrs. Ujuwan Okosun. She alleged that her guard, identified as Amos Kini, took her son, Ivan Okosun, along with her mobile phone, which he later used to call her husband and demand ₦5 million for the child’s release.
Police detectives swiftly visited the scene and arrested one Aruna Dauda, identified as the guarantor of the suspect. “The command has intensified efforts to track down the suspect and rescue the child unhurt. Investigation is ongoing,” sources told security analyst Zagazola Makama.
The police urged residents to remain vigilant and provide timely information to security agencies to help curb criminal activities.
