LAGOS (CONVERSEER) – President Bola Tinubu’s staunch supporter, Joseph Kayode, has been reportedly kidnapped and the kidnappers are demanding N100 million as ransom.
According to reports, his struggling family is begging for the to help them raise the money to release their father.
Sharing the plea on X, his supposed daughter, identified as Lady syrine (@lady_syrine), posted: “Good morning everyone. The most unfortunate thing happened to my family and I yesterday. My dad got kidnapped, and he was shot as well. Please, we are trying to raise a 100 million naira, I want them to release my daddy so that I can take care of him.”
Social Media posts show that last month, Kayode, on his Facebook page, wrote: “TINUBU used decades to build a strong political structure and after using the structure to attain power, instead of making money for himself and the enduring structure, he starts series of legendary reforms, putting huge money in the public Treasury, removing feeding bottles from petrol and FX subsidy merchants, cutting the corruption pipeline of the NNPC, building unimaginably gigantic infrastructures, collaborating with powerful nations to end internal insecurity and combating the menace of food hoarders!!”
In an earlier post, he called for Tinubu’s reelection. “I am 100% committed to the reelection of president Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR,” Kayode wrote on Facebook on February 15.
