How a 17-year-old was unalived by his friends after demanding ₦150 million ransom - Thompson Adams Omolade was a 17-year-old boy who met his untimely death at the hands of his friends, whom he attended the same primary school with. -Last week Wednesday, Thompson left the house, saying he was going to visit his primary school friends who had just moved to a location close to him, but he didn’t give a specific address. - Around 5pm, his sister tried to call him, but his phone was switched off. This was unusual because he left the house with a power bank. They kept calling but couldn’t reach him. - At about 4am , his phone was ringing, but no one answered. The following day, his sister went to the police station to report him missing, hoping he could be found. - While she was at the police station, she received a message from his phone asking her to download an app so they could chat. The friends, who had abducted him, demanded a ransom of ₦150 million. - With the help of the police, they were able to track Thompson’s SIM card and arrest the kidnappers, who confessed that they had been watching and targeting him because they believed his family was wealthy. - Thompson was tied up, filmed, and str@ngled to de@th, and his body was disposed of in the bush. The kidn@ppers had initially lied that his body was in a canal. - When the police searched the canal and found no body, they asked people in the community if anyone had seen or discovered a lifeless body. - Someone then showed them a picture of a lifeless body and said the police had been contacted immediately after it was discovered, and the body was taken to Yaba. The family went there to claim their son’s corpse. - The suspects committed the crime in Ibeju-Lekki before fleeing to Ikorodu, where they were later tracked and arrested by the police May the soul of the departed rest in peace 🕊️
