A suspected kidnapper, Umar Adam, has begged for leniency after being caught by residents of the NEPA community in Jos North Local Government Area of Plateau State. Adam, who had abducted two teenagers, admitted to the crime and pleaded with the police for mercy, claiming it was his first involvement in kidnapping.
