Activist Accused of Stealing Kidnapping Ransom in Edo State Controversy
Activist Harrison Gwamnishu faces accusations of theft from a kidnapping ransom fund in Edo State. The controversy arose after the family of the kidnapped couple alleged that Gwamnishu diverted a portion of the ransom money raised for the safe release of Mr. and Mrs. Oseni.
The Oseni family claims Gwamnishu admitted to remitting only a fraction of the funds and subsequently fled the area. Gwamnishu denies the theft allegations, stating his role was purely technical.
The incident has led to a public inquiry by the Edo State Police.
