According to him, after he received N2.9 million from the kidnappers that he sold information about some residents, he relocated to his hometown, which is Epe in Lagos State.
The suspect, who is a father of two, said that he ran to Epe just to “hide myself”.
He further said: “I don’t participate in the kidnapping operation.
“This is my second time giving them information.
“I was not the one who gave them information about the General, even though my vulcaniser stand was stationed at his place.
“I know General very well, but I was not involved in his kidnapping.
“I was the one that showed the kidnapper the road to where they kidnapped Folorunsho, the furniture man.
“I was given N100,000, but that of General, it was not me.”
