The Taraba state kidnap boss identified as Hamisu Wadume, has been re-arrested by the police, some weeks after he escaped when Nigerian solders allegedly rescued him and killed some policemen in the process.
Wadume was taken into custody at the Nigerian Police Force Headquarters in Abuja on Tuesday August 20. The police are expected to put out a statement later today.
Recall, an army captain had also been taken into custody some days ago after it was discovered that he had been in contact with the kidnapper, exchanging over a hundred messages with him.
