Operatives of the Bayelsa Police Command have arrested a suspected kidnap kingpin, John Ewa, who had been on the wanted list of the police in the state.
THECONSCIENCEng gathered that the policemen trailed Ewa, who goes by the alias Lion, to Abuja, where they nabbed him on Saturday.
The suspect, who flaunts his wealth on social media, is believed to be involved in several kidnap incidents around Yenagoa, the state capital.
In a six-second clip that trended on social media at the weekend, Ewa, dressed in his pyjamas, was seen displaying notes of foreign currency and saying, “Get money for this life, hussle, hussle.”

The voice of one of his victims, Danjuma, was also heard, as he identified the suspect when he and his gang members kidnapped him.
The state police command spokesman, Asinim Butswat, confirmed the arrest of Ewa saying, “We are going to issue a statement tomorrow (Monday) or parade the suspect.”
