My Abductors Were Hired To Kill Me, Nwosu's Wife Reveals by showblack(m): 8:47am On Sep 19, 2015
Hours after she was finally released from the
clutches of her abductors, Mrs. Oluwatoyin
Nwosu, the wife of the Deputy Managing Director
of The Sun Newspapers, Mr. Steve Nwosu, on
Friday said she was supposed to die.
According to Nwosu, who was kept hostage for
four days, the kidnappers had told her that they
were actually paid to kill her.
She also said the kidnappers had all complained
of unemployment in the country and that some
of them even claimed to be graduates.
She said, "When I got there, they told me that
somebody paid for my death. It was stated that
they were hired to kill me. I don’t know yet."
Recounting her tortuous ordeal she said, "They
came into my house packed some things;
jewelries, wristwatches and gold. From there
they took me away.
"They took me to their camp. They took me away
in a boat. I was put in the jungle not in a room. It
was in the bush that I spent three nights until I
was released. At the jungle my face was not
covered.
"If it was a speed boat, it took them thirty
minutes to get to the jungle. On my way, it was
dark I could only hear noise. I could not see
anything.
"Throughout my stay, they asked me to eat but I
refused. They were even begging me to eat.
They asked me to request for any kind of food I
wanted.
"They did because they were expecting money
but thank God something touched their heart.
And now I am alive. I was the only person there.
"At a point I was begging them to please release
me. They told me that my husband didn’t want
to pay. I told them that my husband does not
have money that he is a journalist.
"I was begging them all the while, especially the
one that was beside me. I told him to plead with
his brothers. He said he was going to try.
"When I learnt that I was going home I was so
happy. The one that was communicating with
my husband called me and begged me to eat
that he heard that I didn’t want to eat.
" It was in the process of begging me that he
told me that I would be going home on
Thursday. After he told me I could not close my
eyes again. When night came my heart was at
home already.
"They told me that I should hold on that they
don’t want to bring me out in the day light.
When night came they dropped me under the
FESTAC Town new bridge around 2:15am.
"They did not give me money for transport
because they knew someone would be waiting
for me there. The only thing that they gave me
was a phone that when I get to the land I should
call my husband."
Despite her experience, Mrs. Nwosu, who is
known as an avid philanthropist, said her
abduction and subsequent release would not
stop her from rendering help to people.
She said, "This will not stop me from doing what
I do best, which is helping people. I will continue
to do good.
"I thank God and every other person that played
a role in my freedom. I thank all Nigerians.
Irrespective of what happened, I will keep doing
good.
"I believe that the good I am doing will surely get
me to higher place. Many times, that goodness
turns sour, I will encourage people to not be
weighed down by how people pay back
goodness.
"I don’t know why they treated me the way they
did but I strongly believe that it was prayer that
was at work. It was God that made them treat
me nicely. But criminals will always be criminals”.
