Security operatives arrested four impostors of the proscribed Nigerian Merchant Naval Corps at the office of the Chairman, Irepodun/ Ifelodun Local Government Area of Ekiti State, on Wednesday.
The Chairman, Shina Ogunleye, told newsmen in Ado Ekiti that the four men were nabbed by the Police and men of the Department of State Services (DSS) acting on a tip-off.
He said the gun-wielding “corps members’’ clad in Navy uniform, were rounded up at the headquarters of the council at Igede-Ekiti.
Ogunleye said he suspected that culprits were in his office to kidnap him.
The expatriate identified as one of those supervising the construction of Ilupeju-Ire-Igbemo-Ijan road, was said to have been waylaid at Igbemo-Ekiti while driving in a Hilux Van and whisked away to unknown destination by arm-wielding attackers.
