Court Orders Kidnap Kingpin, Evans, to Return €233,000 Ransom to Victim And Pay N50m as Damages

A High court sitting at the Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos has ordered kidn@p kingpin, Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike aka Evans, to refund the sum of €233,000 ransom he collected from one of his victims, Chief Donatus Dunu.

Justice Olukayode Ogunjobi on Wednesday, February 15, also ordered the convicted kidn@pper to pay N50 million as general dam@ges in favour of the Claimant.

Evans abd¥cted Dunu, who is a pharmacist, on February 14, 2017. Duru later escaped from captivity after the convicted kidn@pper took €233,000 from his family.

Upon his escape, Dunu, who is the CEO of Maydon Pharmaceutical Company, filed a suit demanding the return of the sum of £223,000 he paid as ransom while in the custody of the kidn@p kingpin. He also demanded the sum of N50 million as dam@ges.

Delivering his judgment, Justice Ogunjobi held, “I accept the unchallenged and uncontroverted evidence of the Claimant and his witnesses. The evidence support the reliefs sought by the Claimant.

Consequently, the Claimant is entitled to be paid or repaid and or recover from the Defendant, the sum of €233,000 ransom coercively paid by the Claimant to Defendant when the Defendant kidn@pped the Claimant in the year 2017 and held the Claimant hostage for months.

The sum of N50million is awarded as general dam@ges in favour of the Claimant against the Defendant.

Post judgment interest is awarded on the said sum of €233,000 at the rate of 10% per annum from judgment i.e. 14th of February, 2023 until final liquidation.

The adjudged said sum of €233,000 and N50,000,000 is hereby ordered to be paid or recovered from the Assets of the Defendant. This is the Judgment of the Court.”

The court however refused the claim for prejudgement interest of 40 percent per annum on the €233,000.

Then, Fck "Modern Civilisation" in the same logic. Fck the hospitals, they charge many emergency patients before treating them so many deaths. Fck traffic authorities, cancel them - many road traffic deaths. Hey Fck the police, lets not even start on how many reasons that one. You'll like this one, how about fck the whole Nigeria administration altogether - who the place don epp?  You like my imitation?

And if he is freed for paying 50mill for damages, then he's gonna go for more kidnapping but this time it will be more ruthless and aggressive without remorse or mercy for the victim...why don't you just let him rot in prison at least
