It was gathered that the girl’s mother, a POS operator, reported that her customer, a yet-to-be-identified male adult, on Monday was responsible for the kidnapping.

According to the mother, the regular customer visited the shop, bought food for the seven-year-old girl, and later sent her on an errand to buy a sachet of water.

In an attempt to retrieve the sachet of water, the customer met the child midway and before the mother, who was attending to other customers, could look in the direction of her daughter to see what was going on, she could not find the man or her daughter.

However, Odutola on Sunday said the command, in a swift operation, rescued the girl and subsequently arrested the suspects involved in the kidnapping.
