The Enugu State Commissioner of Police, Emmanuel Ojukwu, Thursday, paraded two ladies, who allegedly stage-managed their mother’s kidnap. They were arrested alongside the boyfriend to one of them. According to Ojukwu “the suspects were arrested on a different date in connection with the purported kidnapping of one Mrs. Hannah Achime.
“One Monday Egbe, aged 30 years, was arrested and he confessed how the two of the victim’s daughters, Onyinyechi Achime and Akunna Achime invited him to the business to enable them collect money from their elder brother, one Mr. Eric Achime based in Lagos.
“Ransom of N2.5 million naira was demanded, while N500,000.00 was agreed to be paid, though nothing was paid. Suspects all confessed to the crime.” While being interviewed by journalists, the two ladies claimed to have executed the crime as a last measure towards raising money for their mother’s medical treatment.
One of the suspects, a graduate of the Enugu State University of Science and Technology, who was to go for the National Youths Service Corps, by end of this month said “we have been begging our brother to bring money for our mother’s eye treatment but he refused.
“The eye problem became so much and we had no option; we decided to do that in order to raise money. We took her to a hotel at the Camp and paid for a room there.
“I brought my friend and he helped us in arranging the kidnap. He was the one calling our brother, but he refused to bring money; he said the kidnappers can eat her if they liked. We didn’t hurt her at all; it was all for our mum’s good, though we didn’t tell her.
“She got to know later, and she has been begging the police to drop the case. As we speak her medical condition is even getting worse.”
I have been reporting for several years now and I am very interested in visual news reportage with strong inclusion of photos and video multimedia.

Though what they did wasn't right but it just goes to show ho deeply our generation is far gone. I still St by what Wole Soyinka said a couple of years back. " when the gap between the rich and the poor gets so wide, we will have anarchy". All those rich idiots siphoning money and hiding it for themselves and there children, be warned. We are gradually approaching that point, where a youth will tell you " whichever action he takes I is still the same which is death o destruction, so he does it all the same.

Wow. The things we do because of money. Our backhand buisness deals range from those at the top to the very bottom.
The question is "what can we do to combat this problem?"
Money returned to Nigeria in the past from oversea nations is RESTOLEN. Our police force find stolen money hidden in a suspects house and that's the LAST we hear about the money - where does it go.
Yes Britain should return ALL money STOLEN BY NIGERIANS. We just pray the money will better our lives and not be RESTOLEN BY NIGERIANS A SECOND TIME!

You think the son was wicked? Better think twice. Where is their father? And what caused the eye problems. Who sent those stupid girls to school. Those wicked daughters and their treacherous mother have wrecked so much havoc in the lives of the Father and son. That was why they abandoned them. Awon oloshi olori buruku ole omo.
