Kidnap kingpin Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike, also known as Evans, was slammed with a 21-year jail term on Monday by Justice Oluwatoyin Taiwo of the Ikeja Special Offences Court. He was sentenced to 21 years with his co-defendant, Victor Aduba, for the kidnapping of one Sylvanus Hafia.
Both Evans and his co-defendant were standing trial for conspiring and kidnapping Sylvanus Ahanonu Hafia at about 5:30 pm on June 23, 2014, at Kara Street, Amuwo Odofin in Lagos. They were alleged to have captured and detained Hafia and demanded a ransom of $2m.
But they pleaded not guilty to the four charges.
The judge held that the sentence would serve as a deterrent to other aspiring kidnappers.
More details shortly…
