Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!The following are what you should know about “John Lyon”, the suspected kidnap kingpin:
* John Eka Ewa, popularly known as John Lyon aka Kpai-kpai was born on December 22, 1986.
*He hails from Boki Local Government Area, Cross-River State.
*He owns a brand name Lyon Interior which reportedly serves as ‘cover-up’ for his nefarious activities.
*He is well-known for flaunting his wealth online and advising young people to ‘hustle hard’ attempting to invalidate legitimate hard workers.
* Contrary to speculation that John Lyon, alleged to have kidnapped prominent persons in Bayelsa State, was arrested yesterday in Abuja, it was learnt that he was apprehended on September 15.
* His arrest was kept under the radar because the police did not want to jeopardize the investigation as police authorities in the state were on the trail of his accomplices who fled on hearing of the arrest of their suspected arrowhead.
* The suspected notorious kingpin isn’t related to Chief David Lyon, the All Progressives Congress governorship (APC) candidate in the 2019 election in Bayelsa State but adopted ‘Lyon’ as a makeshift name to conceal his track.
