One of the kidnappers that carried out the abduction of more than 100 students from Bethel Baptist School Kaduna, Muazu Abubakar was paid N100,000 for his role in the operation, in which some of victims were gruesomely killed.
The suspect who made the confession in Abuja was among the three kingpins arrested by the police for their involvement in the abduction of more than 100 students of the school, after several months on the run.
Dressed in military camouflage, the suspects were paraded by the Force Public Relations Officer, Frank Mba, at the headquarters of defunct Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), in Abuja.
The suspects – Adamu Bello, Isiaku Lawal and Muazu Abubakar – told newsmen that 25 of them abducted the students.
They said they carried out the operation in desperate bid to get money.
Abubakar, a 27-year-old suspect, said, “Twenty-five of us carried out the operation. We kidnapped 136 students and I got N100,000 share from the money.”
