A serious allegation has emerged on social media involving well-known commonly recognized for his interventions in kidnap and assault cases across Nigeria.
According to commentator TT (Mr. Yak Nation), Harrison allegedly withheld ₦5.5 million from a ransom fee intended to secure the release of a kidnapped victim. As a result, the yet-to-be-freed victim is said to now face greater danger, after kidnappers reportedly discovered discrepancies in the amount delivered.
TT wrote:
“Harrison removed ₦5.5m from the ransom he went to pay, and now he has put the man who wasn’t released into trouble.”
The claim has triggered intense reactions online. While some Nigerians are demanding accountability and transparency from Harrison — especially due to his public reputation for helping victims — others are urging caution, warning that the full details of the incident are yet to be verified.
Critics argue that any interference with ransom funds in a kidnapping situation could jeopardize lives, while supporters suggest that the accusations may be part of a smear campaign or misunderstanding.
As of the time of reporting, Harrison has not publicly responded to the allegation, and there has been no statement confirming:
-
The identity of the kidnapped victim
-
How much money was raised or delivered
-
Whether security agencies are involved
Analysts say the situation highlights the risks associated with private negotiations in kidnapping cases — a growing trend in Nigeria due to distrust in state security mechanisms.
Advocacy groups are now calling for:
-
A full explanation from Harrison
-
Independent verification of the ransom funds
-
Collaboration with lawful security authorities going forward
Kidnapping for ransom remains a major security challenge in the country, and Nigerians are urging that delicate rescue operations be handled with utmost accountability, to avoid further endangering victims.
