Woman blames her dad for kidnapping neighbour's daughter

A woman who reportedly abducted her neighbour's child has passed blame to her dad who failed to train her to be responsible.

The police arrested Idris following a tip-off. She allegedly planned with some accomplices to abduct the victim, a three-year-old girl identified as Fatima Nura.

According to reports, the goal was to use this situation to collect a ransom from the victim's family.

Punch News confirmed this in a report where the woman was captured lamenting about a poor upbringing which has prompted her to make bad choices.

“My father did not consider it necessary to train me to be responsible, otherwise, why should I involve myself in this wicked act? Why should I even kidnap my neighbour’s child who always played with my children? It’s unfortunate.

"Allah and my neighbours will forgive me for what I did to this little girl; in fact, I don’t deserve to be alive to face this shame," says Safiya Idris in a report by Punch.

The abducted has been released while law enforcement officers make preparation to arraign the suspect at a court.
