EVANS, THE KIDNAPPER KINGPIN WAS SENTENCED TO 21 YEARS IN PRISON FOR KIDNAPPING

Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike, also known as Evans, and his co-defendant, Victor Aduba, were sentenced to 21 years in prison on Monday by Justice Oluwatoyin Taiwo of the Ikeja Special Offences Court for kidnapping one Sylvanus Hafia.

They were accused of conspiring and kidnapping Sylvanus Ahanonu Hafia around 5:30 p.m. on June 23, 2014, at Kara Street, Amuwo Odofin in Lagos, and of capturing and detaining Hafia and demanding a $2 million ransom.

They pleaded not guilty to the four-count charge, however.

The judge reasoned that the sentence would deter other would-be kidnappers.
