Nigerian singer Michael Olayinka, popularly known as Ruger, has voiced deep concern over the growing wave of insecurity across the country, particularly the rising cases of kidnapping.
The Asiwaju hitmaker expressed fears for the safety of Nigerians and visitors who plan to travel across the country during the upcoming festive season.
Taking to his X (formerly Twitter) account on Wednesday, Ruger described kidnapping as a “full-time business” in several parts of Nigeria, warning that the situation could deteriorate further in December if urgent action isn’t taken.
He wrote,
“I’m scared for people this December. Kidnapping has become a full-time business in some parts of Nigeria and it’s only going to get worse this festive season. People will travel back to their villages from abroad and from many other places in Nigeria. These bastards will strike hard.”
