Crowd welcomes notorious kingpin after regaining freedom
A large crowd in Ibbi Taraba State, Sunday welcomed “kidnap kingpin”, Hamisu Bala, better known as Wadume.
The notorious kingpin, who was arrested by men of the Intelligence Response Team of Inspector-General of Police, in 2019, was released from Kuje Prison in Abuja, on Friday, according to sources.
Wadume was ferried into Ibbi through river Benue, where he was received by thousands of people, including youths and women.
Wadume told the chief that he was at the palace to appreciate the traditional ruler and the entire people of his chiefdom.
“I and the entire people of Ibbi chiefdom are happy that Hamisu Wadume is now back in Ibbi his home town,” the chief responded.
