Faces of the fleeing members of a kidnap gang that
connived with an evil nanny, Funmilayo Adeyemi to
abduct three Orekoya kids and others in Lagos have
been unveiled. They are two brothers identified as
Rasheed and Hakeem Kareem.
The nanny, who abducted three children from the
Orekoya family home in Surulere area of Lagos on April
10 within 24 hours after she was employed as a
housemaid, claimed that she was pushed into the act by
her husband, Rasheed Kareem(above)
Funmilayo Adeyemi, mother of four and aged 35
confessed that, the family runs a kidnapping business,
adding that her husband is the head of the gang.
Saturday Sun learnt that the suspects, who in their early
30s, are known in their area as rich boys because of the
exotic cars and choice apartment they live in. As soon
as neighbours start questioning the source of their
wealth, they will relocate.
The kidnap syndicate initially demanded N15 million
from the Orekoyas, a ransom that was later negotiated to
N13 million out of which N2 million was paid into a
given bank account to bait the suspects. The children
identified as Demola, 6, Adedamola, 4, and Aderomola,
11months were later dumped naked in an uncompleted
building after nine days in their abductors' custody.
She had said that the others (husband and brother-in-
law) run the business side of the kidnapping and had
collected N2m for the Magodo kidnap, which occurred
December last year. The children were later found in
Sagamu,
