The Nigeria Police Force, has rejected allegations of collusion with kidnappers and criminals to abduct unsuspecting road users for ransom.
The police insisted that the allegations were not only unsubstantiated but also unfairly damaging to an institution entrusted with the protection of millions of Nigerians.
The Force stated that police personnel deployed to checkpoints and other locations nationwide were there to prevent crime, detect criminal activity and protect citizens, not to facilitate kidnapping.
