The unfortunate alleged kidnap of Jessica Edionwele, daughter of Hon. Edionwele representing Esan Constituency, Edo State stirred up a storm over the weekend after she was found with her lover hale and hearty.
Frantic efforts had been made to rescue Jessica who was thought to be in the hands of kidnappers and top celebrity producer, Don Jazzy even called on people on social media to join hands and seeking her release but alas, the story took a different turn when she was eventually found in Lugbe, an outskirt of Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, Sunday evening by policemen from the command.
The initial story was that the Honourable’s daughter had departed Ibadan, Oyo State, where she was stationed for her NYSC year, for Lagos to board an aircraft to Abuja. She was said to have landed Abuja safely but took an airport taxi that drove her away to an unknown destination.

While family and friends were terribly worried for what would have befallen the young lady, she allegedly gave her father’s telephone number to her ‘abductor’, who claimed demanded a ransom be paid if her father ever wanted to see his daughter alive again.
FCT Police swung into action after being contacted about the issue and on Sunday, they successfully recovered the ‘missing’ Jessica along with her abductor.
Investigations by ThisDay revealed that Jessica collaborated with her boyfriend to extort money from her father by feigning abduction. She had indeed left Abuja airport to her boyfriend’s house in Amac, Lugbe, where they both agreed to swindle her father with the story of kidnap.
A source told ThisDay, “We got the information of where she was hiding from someone who had seen Jessica in the neighborhood and afterwards alerted the police, and both of them were seen and arrested in Lugbe”.
Don Jazzy has since deleted all posts regarding the issue from his social media pages including the public appeal he made for her release.
FCT spokesperson, Anjuguri Manza, maintained his position that he had not yet received any formal briefing on the case when contacted by reporters. Nigerians on Twitter went on to bash the young lady for her misdeeds. Read their comments:
This Jessica’s move is more than increasing one’s fees. This 1 punishable by law, especially as she has an accomplice in bae.
