The Anambra State Police Command has arrested 38-year-old
wanted kidnap suspect, Okafor, a graduate of Mathematics from the Nnamdi
Azikiwe University, Awka.
Okafor popularly known as
Igwe did not only fall afoul of the law as a kidnapper, he also messed
up the temple of God by keeping his victims in a church and sharing his
loot from the kidnap ransom with the pastor.
Once
on a mission to collect N5 million ransom from the family of victim in
Asaba, Delta State, he was rounded up by crack policemen and locked up
in a cell.
Okafor, however, escaped through the window of the cell to continue
his evil kidnap trade until the hardworking members of the State Anti-Robbery
Squad (SARS) in Anambra ended his reign of terror.
The kidnap kingpin spoke with Sunday Sun:
“I graduated from Unizik in 2006 and I studied Mathematics. I did my
NYSC in Abuja and I served in NNPC at Berger. After graduation I was
going to Ghana to buy clothes to sell in Lagos State.
“I am now
involved totally in kidnapping where I make quick money. When I
kidnap, I used to take my victims to my church in Awkuzu where the
General Overseer, Pastor Nwaezeagu always collects the victims from us
and at the end, we would give him his own share. We decided to join the
church so that the members would not suspect us that we were keeping
some victims we kidnapped inside the church.”
“I was the one who
was involved in the kidnapping of the traditional prime minister in
Enugu-Ukwu and we collected N50 million from the victim before we
released him and I gave Pastor Nwaezeagu his 20 per cent share on that
day.
“I kidnapped another woman in Awka and collected N30 million
from the family of victim and kept her in the church and, after the
family paid the ransom, I released the suspect and I gave Pastor
Nwaezeagu the sum of N200,000.” There's just too much to go on and too much for him to answer for, but one thing is for sure, his kidnap days are over and its prison time for him.
