Vulcanizer arrested for aiding kidnapping of prominent furniture businessman in Lagos
A Nigerian man has shared the details of how a prominent furniture businessman was kidnapped several months ago, revealing that a vulcanizer near the victim’s shop provided crucial information to the kidnappers.
In a lengthy post on the popular social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the man recounted how a furniture merchant, from whom he had purchased furniture for his home, was abducted.
According to the post, the kidnapping took place near the Lagoon, with the perpetrators arriving by boat, firing shots into the air before entering the furniture showroom.
The businessman was taken away via the Lagoon, and after several days, he was released following the payment of a multi-million naira ransom.

The vulcanizer was later arrested after being linked to another kidnapping operation. The post included a video of the vulcanizer’s arrest.
The post has sparked an outpouring of reactions online, with many concerned individuals commenting on the incident and the growing threat of such crimes.
