In a statement he signed and released to journalists, the NAF spokesperson noted the arrest was carried out in a well-coordinated operation following credible intelligence on the hideout of the notorious kidnapper and his boys who were responsible for several kidnapping incidences in the area.

According to Gabkwet, preliminary investigation has since revealed that Isah Abdul and his gang were responsible for the abduction of one Yakubu Ibrahim Tagaho, popularly known as “Sarkin Noman Gaya,” on 6th April 2023, from his residence in Tagaho Village in Takai Local Government Area.

He, however, added that the victim was released a month later after a ransom of N30,000,000. 00 was collected, saying that in December 2023, the same criminal abducted two sisters and three others from the same village and released them after collecting a huge ransom.

Isah Abdul, was also responsible for several other kidnapping activities as he has strong ties to other known kidnapping gangs like the Danbul Fulaku gang that also operates in Takai LGA, Gabkwet revealed.

He also revealed that Isah Abdul is currently in the custody of the Nigerian Air Force, still undergoing investigations and will soon be handed over to appropriate authorities for further proceedings.
