While parading the suspects before the Edo State Governor, Adams Oshiomole and journalists, Edo State Director of the SSS, Bakore Tukur, disclosed that the suspects were arrested at various locations in the state.
He said the kidnappers were nabbed in the process of collecting the sum of N10 million ransom.
The SSS boss said locally made guns were recovered from the suspects, adding that they would be charged to court once investigations were concluded on the matter.
He further thanked the state government for its support towards the service.
Governor Adams Oshiomole who commended the agency in its fight against nefarious crimes , said the state government would continue to assist security agencies to ensure a safer environment.
