The notorious kidnapper, Chikwudubem Onwuamadike alias Evans, who was recently arrested in Lagos has a Ghanaian passport and owns houses in the country.
The Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, who disclosed this yesterday at the ongoing West Africa National Security Conference in Accra, Ghana, further affirmed that Evans’ family resides in Ghana.
Idris, who underscored the importance of bilateral information sharing, had hinted that the arrest of the notorious kidnapper was made possible through exchange of information between national police organisations.
“Last week, we arrested a kidnapper. He has houses in Ghana and his family is based here in Ghana and that’s the only kidnapper that kidnaps and demands ransom in dollars. He has collected about $6 million so far in ransom and he keeps his victim for as long as six months, even if it means paying the ransom in instalments.
It is sad that he keeps somebody for six months and doesn’t release the victim until that money was paid in full,” he said. (Daily Trust)
It is mind boggling how someone could contrive in his head that the way to live is to kidnap and subjugate others for their hard earned money is normal. I would ask the authority to employ a renowned psychoanalyst and Psychiatrist to get into the head of this guy to find out what he’s made of and how it can help to solve other heinous crimes against mankind. I am still wondering what went on in Evans head devoid of emotional intelligence to embark on this kind of crime despite that he is a family man, a husband, father, brother son, uncle just name it.
