The Lagos State Government has declared that billionaire kidnapper, Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike, also known as Evans won’t escape justice.
The state government said no effort would be spared in ensuring the logical conclusion of the cases filed in court against the former kidnap kingpin.
Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice of the state, Mr Adeniji Kazeem, said this at the Ministerial Press Briefing held at the Bagauda Kaltho Press Centre in Alausa as part of activities marking the third year anniversary of Governor Akinwunmi Ambode’s administration.
Kazeem said, “On the Evans’ matter, the cases filed against him are ongoing in court. The issue is that the lawyer representing him is trying to play some games to delay the matter but in all his games, we have been defeating him in court.
“We have filed different cases. Some are for kidnapping and some bordered on murder and his lawyer is fighting all the cases but what I can assure the people is that we are committed to ensure the matter is concluded and defeat him at the end of the day.”
The former kidnap kingpin, who was arrested at his mansion in Magodo area of Lagos in 2017, is being prosecuted by the State Government in court for masterminding and executing series of high profile kidnappings and murder in the State.
