Billionaire Kidnapper & Father of 5 Evans Caught+ Reveals how He Trapped his Victims

Apparently, the saying that ‘every day is for the thief and one day is for the owner’ is solidly reflecting in the life of billionaire kidnapper, Chukwudubem George Onwuamadike aka Evans who was arrested shortly after his return home last Saturday.

It was gathered that he had not been to the house for sometime before the police busted his gang. Unfortunately, luck did not shine on him on that fateful day.

The police said, according to Punch, his modus operandi was to engage a gang to carry out kidnapping, while another gang held the victims hostage until ransoms were paid. It was said that none of the gang members knew where he lived since 2008 when he reportedly went into kidnapping.

 

The father of five revealed to the Police that he collects ransoms in dollars.

When asked about his family, the notorious kidnapper was silent.

“I was into importation of spare parts here in Lagos. But in 2015, customs seized my goods worth N20m and I became stranded. That was when I went into kidnapping. I usually collect ransoms in dollars and the highest I got was $1m for a victim. I am also into drug. I used the proceeds from kidnapping and drug to buy property. I have a wife and five children. I can’t talk too much,” he said.

It was gathered that Evans had procured $4m from four of his 13 captives in Lagos, and used part of the proceeds to acquire two mansions worth N300m in Magodo Phase II, another two houses in Accra, Ghana, exotic cars, expensive wristwatches and jewellery.

The police said some of his high-profile victims included one James Uduji, who was kidnapped around his house at 7th Avenue, FESTAC Town, in 2016, and held for six weeks until $1m ransom was paid, as well as one Uche Okoroafor, a trader at Alaba International Market, who spent three months in hostage until $1m was paid for his release.
