In his own account, the father of the kidnapped twins, Sheik Akeugbagold, said, “I have always be good enough to those people, I don’t even think they can come and did that to me and my household, I employed the mastermind Opeyemi of the crime few weeks ago to help manage my social media accounts and we have agreed on certain amount, I promise to give him N50, 000, I also I do pay him two thousand naira on daily, I also give One thousand naira to Bashiru as well, after they might have break their fasting with me right in my house, at times we eat together in the same plate, I have also paid part of the agreed payment for their studio and I intend to still pay N200, 000 for the well done job.

I can’t believe they can do such a thing to me, they knew my movements, I like Yemi because of his brilliance and advise he used to give whenever we are talking, I don’t know he can mastermind such evil against me, Sheik Akeugbagold said.
