Singer Ruger has sounded alarm bells, cautioning Nigerians, especially returning diaspora and holiday‑travellers, that kidnapping has become a “full‑time business” and could spike ahead of December festivities.

The ‘Asiwaju’ crooner, in a post via 𝕏, lamented that kidnapping has become a full-time business in some parts of the country.

Ruger claimed that the situation might worsen in December if nothing was done urgently to contain it.

The singer also expressed worry about the safety of people who will be coming to Nigeria or travelling around the country this December due to the activities of kidnappers.

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.”
