highmood:
you are not forced to believe everything you hear. That man is from my Hometown, and I know him very well. Don't judge someone by his/her appearance. I have a sis working for him. So if he has giving those criminals that huge sum of money to gain his freedom, then am not surprise. I am only grateful that he is free and the mad man and his gang who once held him hostage are now in chains. I bet you, he is ready to support the police to make those fools rot in jail for the rest of their life.

If I were in Onwa's shoes, I will 'support' Kyari, IGP-IRT, SARS, the Lagos State Police Command, and Fatai himself with a 'token' $200k at least, to make sure that this bastard calls Evans and ALL members of his gang die a slow and painful death in detention, after ALL necessary information have been painfully extracted from them. Personally, I would even pay more to have the pleasure of killing him myself.

I laugh at the idiots who think that Evans can evade justice because he supposedly has money to hire top lawyers or bribe cops. Which money does he have? Money he obtained from these same titans like Onwa, who have MORE money, and are happy to now have their own pound of flesh?

Evans' sorrows are still at the infancy stage. The real biblical gnashing of teeth is still preparing to start.

Jakumo:
Chai ! You don drive that man go, one-two.

Bro it's annoying to see daft comments like "oh not Evans again", bla bla bla. As if anyone is forced to read a particular thread here.

I can't get enough of this bastard Evans guy, and I follow every new information related to the case religiously. These kinds of characters are a threat to law and order in society and we need to learn everything learnable about their modus operandi and the aftermath, so that we would see how justice is served and move forward.

I am so disgusted that one animal can just get a gun, kidnap someone, and pompously demand $1m from a hardworking private citizen, just like that! As if those of us who toil and work hard everyday are stupid. It's just ridiculous. I would pay half of my current liquid worth to have the pleasure of killing this Evans bastard with my bare hands!

This is a gripping narrative.

Impressive use of the English language is not a measurement for intelligence.

And neither is poor use of English - for someone supposedly educated in an English speaking country,; whose own official language is English! You can't be educated in an English speaking country, and yet speak and write the language like a plebeian simpleton. I wonder how you can prove your so-called intelligence if you can't organise your thoughts clearly and present/express your ideas effectively.

I hate it when you people make silly excuses for mediocres and misfits in this messed up zoo of a country.

This scourge of kidnapping may consume everyone if we don't take a decisive step to end the menace now.

It's the worst security challenge Nigeria has ever faced. Worse than the civil war and Boko Haram combined.

Something drastic must be done. It is now a national emergency.

The most annoying thing is that the guy is a barber that earns little. . .

Tick Tick.

Listen up sons, I'll tell you what I know about girls in this part of the world.

Outrageous and prohibitive. Most of the so-called youths who are prospective members are not based in the rural areas, so I'm not sure the ward level option is realistic.

Bottom line. The party is not serious at all. A new party with no pull factor. Yet they are already pricing themselves put of the market. They are really deluded.

uboma:
The guy is a learner.

He should have walked up to where the Lady is seated and try to be friends first.

Only learners will send the waiter to collect the phone number of the babe they are admiring.

Actually, he is certainly not a learner. That's what works for 90% of the kind of girls you see in clubs who are mostly hustlers (even the so-called 'working class' girls who supposedly come to unwind are also on the lookout for a big boy to dash them N50 - N100k for the night). So yeah, sending an expensive drink over to the table is what always works for the big boys.

I'm not sure he was looking for a relationship. He merely wanted to add one more booty call to his already long phone book.

Stupid tales. No reasonable person takes these fake twitter stories seriously anyway. Nigerian girl did what? I'm sure that even Mike Adenuga's daughter still has parasitism wired into her DNA. They are all built to receive, NOT to give.

Where they spend, it is always always with a grander, more sinister motive.... Like they want to deceive you into marriage; want to entrap you to give them much more at a later date; or are merely fattening you for the kill. Same way you feed a cow or Christmas goat preparatory to the slaughter.

They simply do not spend on a man to prove a point, or for spending sake.

Idiots here making some filthy ragtags seem all powerful. So merely being a "cultist" makes you a moving train that destroys everything it comes across? Dem no dey look face?

Well. Op is clearly a small boy. Go and suck your mama's breasts. You have no business penetrating a woman until you are mature enough.

bmos:
How Nigerians can easily sweep things under the carpet. In other countries they will continue to dig and dig until they get to the bottom of the matter. Out there, they can be so united and could stay on the street in protest against unpopular government action. Here in naija, 3 days and everyone is like 'to your tent O Israel'.

Don't mind these idiots. The way they treat everything, including very serious issues, as comic reliefs is just saddening.

Besides, there are many threads here to choose from. If these Evans threads are not your thing, why not skip and go to one of the romance threads or something.

A generation of frivolous bumpkins.

Impressive use of English and mental clarity for a secondary school leaver. I know numerous university graduates who are nowhere near this level.

The sad thing is that the best always get left out of the system (admission slots, job slots, etc.) while barely qualified nincompoops are given precedence. That's the tragedy of this bloody zoo called Nigeria. That's why things never work here.

muffyt05:
I do not think the police are advertising the kidnapping business as you mentioned. I believe they're only trying to expose his m.o. As great as Pablo was,the Colombian drug lord,Netflix made a movie detailing his operations and I'll gotten accumulated wealth as well as his death. Nobody ever saw that movie as glorifying the Medellin cartel but saw how it was effectively and meticolously brought down. Those still in the business, haven seen how their chairman was caught like a fowl will definetly have a re-think right now

Well said.

Very gripping tale.

Not nice.

I had a similar experience sometime last month. But thankfully, the story had a divine twist. Our escape was a sheer miracle... Even more miraculous than what the OP described.

I was in a commuter bus heading to Abuja, and after Lokoja - somewhere before or around Abaji - while I was busy replying an email on my phone, I was jolted back to my surroundings by a sudden, collective, desperate cry by my fellow passengers: 'ndia bu ndi ori, ndi ori o; driver move o move o, ndi ori ndi ori o' I looked up to behold Fulani-looking gunmen on the road, in front of our bus. Like the OP described, one of the brigands was right in the centre of the road, with his brute finger poised on the trigger of what looked like the 'industry standard' AK-47. Two others flanked him to the left and right.

To make matters seemingly worse. Our driver was a complete novice to these kinds of experiences. Rather than damn all consequences and force his way though (like in the OP's case), the idiot panicked and stamped his foot on the brake, fidgeting and waiting, as the brigands advanced menacingly towards us. At that point I had resigned myself to fate.

However, as the good Lord God of Heaven would have it, believe it or not, at that very moment, an oncoming private bus with a police escort in the front seat emerged from nowhere. The escort, on sensing what was happening, released a flurry of gun shots which forced the brigands to scamper in all directions while the bus with the policeman zoomed off. At that point, we all shouted at the transfixed and confused driver of our bus to follow suit. Only then did the idiot pedal down and escape from the scene.

I have no idea what qualified us to benefit from that kind of spectacular coincidence... An oncoming bus with an armed security operative happening upon us at the very moment of our need, in the middle of nowhere.

Fall is a great song, and its video is the best ever shot by any Nigerian artiste. Period.

Deseo:
Are you people seeing fine boy?

Typical Naija parasitic 'slay queen'. Look all around your neighbourhood, church, school, workplace, everywhere you go right here in Nigeria. You would see finer boys. But perhaps because they're not rich or famous, you don't 'see' them.

Because you heard that Joshua is worth millions of pounds and is a global celebrity, na only him own fine boy you go see.

ensamy:
I pity Nigerian Police force, after all this dangerous encounters with deadly armmed robbers and some even loose thier lives, they will go home N40k a month as salary.
Fed.gov should look into thier welfare with utmost urgency.

For real. Our police force is under remunerated and under appreciated. These guys are the ones who put their lives on the line for us on a daily basis. Forget the pompous and over self-entitled idiots called soldiers. The real heros here are the policemen who engage criminal bastards among us. Never mind that there are many bad eggs among them. Comparatively, the Nigerian Military is one big bad egg as a whole.

The least paid policeman here should earn N100k a month.

Chris Rock is 52? You don't mean it.

seangy4konji:
Go and die...

You're dead already. Useless criminal.
The day of reckoning is coming.

seangy4konji:
disgusting to conemplate but the real thieves u nor see anything talk about am..wether u say i go school or i pass school...i still know say i better pass u.

So you this bastard armed robber still get mouth to talk?

Let me attempt to reorientate you and the rest of your criminal ilk (your fellow cultists who think armed robbery and kidnapping are still part of normal 'hustles). Robbery and kidnapping would never be the same thing as yahoo yahoo or political corruption. So better think straight.

There is a reason why corruption, fraud, money laundering, and other financial crimes attract less punishment in ALL legal systems of democratic countries in the world than violent crimes.

A politician who embezzles public funds is not a direct threat to the peace and security of any individual. Granted, corruption breeds underdevelopment, and strips citizens of opportunities for self actualisation. But that is on a grand, diffused scale, not at a personal level. The person you are robbing or kidnapping is also a victim of the flawed system. Yet he managed to use his creativity and work ethic to make something out of his life. Subjecting this person and his family to physical, mental, and financial torture (via robbery or kidnapping), and then opening your dirty mouth to blame the government or corrupt politicians is a grave injustice to good conscience. It is despicable and unconscionable. Because that your victim is not the government, and is probably not a politician. That's the tragedy of person to person direct violent crime. You're inflicting pain and misery directly upon a person. Hear me loud and clear, you brute: The combined force of a zillion corrupt politicians cannot be compared to the injustice, pain, and trauma meted out to this one individual..

In Nigeria, as in the United States, crooked politicians exist; so do poor people exist. Millions of them. But the government, or corrupt politicians, will not stop creative and hardworking people from earning a decent living or even building incredible wealth. Corrupt politicians will always be there. The system will always be flawed. We are all victims of this. So you can't possibly justify your personalised victimisation of your fellow 'victim' by blaming politicians. It is ridiculous, and will never be socially acceptable.

If you're an armed robber or kidnapper, you are worse than a corrupt politician. If a corrupt politician is caught and prosecuted, let him be imprisoned. But if you or your fellow armed robbers and kidnappers are caught, you SHOULD be killed immediately. Your lives are worthless, and you are a threat to the peace and security of law abiding cotozens

Full stop.

SEOManiac:
This one no be man

Lol. Shebi you be man. No worry, make your cup full, make people wey wan treat your fuccck up grip you. You go shiiit for body and implicate your great grand mother wey die before dem born you.

It's easy to talk nonsense and form hard man, from the comfort of your couch... until your own D-day arrives.

Do you know what it takes to be a billionaire in Nigeria? The kind of billionaire that can pay an unthinkable $1m ransom? And this bastard kidnapped MANY of such billionaires. Now he has been caught. Do you know the length such men can go to, to ensure that they get their pound of flesh?

Personally, my biggest pleasure in life is exacting revenge on those who trample on me without remorse. I can deplete my entire fortune, and even risk death, whilst pursuing revenge. If I were one of the billionaires that this maggot messed with, I would pay the same amount I paid earlier as ransom to the most brutal elements in SARS/IGP - IRT to practice their latest torture techniques on him to warm him up, and then allow me secretly administer the most unbelievable torture routines in the world on this beast,.....so that I would see the limits of his 'manliness' according to you.

seangy4konji:
Let this guy rest na.

Why are the even still holding the guy...

I his hearing could be taken to the code of conduct tribunal then i will believe in equal right in nigeria...

He should be left alone to enjoy his loot...

The lives lost due to embezzlement and stolen funds from saraki is more than collecting ransom on over 20 million nigerians..

Let this guy go and get a cold beer and isiewu and enjoy is life jare...


PS..WHO amongst us has saraki begs for ones for forgiveness?

Look at this barely literate, criminal bastard.

I wonder how many armed robbers, kidnappers, and everything in-between we have here on Nairaland. It's disgusting to even contemplate.

KWAM 1 is an equal opportunity 'gbowo jade' praise singing musician. One moment he is dutifully playing his role as Asiwaju Tinubu's lick-spittle. The next moment he is shamelessly singing the praise of disreputable characters like Seun Egbegbe and MC Oluomo..
In between, he is sucking up to the likes of Shina Peller and Rotimi A., and the members of the defunct so-called "Squad 1"....Under the guise of 'egbon'

As for the likes of Pasuma, Obesere, and Osupa, their main fan base comprises area boys, local pickpockets, armed robbers, extortionists, juju consultants, amala political thugs, and all the dregs of Yoruba society.

Too many criminals everywhere. It's disheartening. With the exponential growth in the population of idle, self-entitled, loafing youths, I really fear for this country. The crime rate would get even worse.

My family and loved ones and I would not have to contend with any of this.

I hope it's true. He deserves worse than that.

tete7000:
A typical example of no peace for a wicked man. People get themselves involved in poo and then lose their right to sleep, running helter skelter. How I wish men will learn devil can't give you peace, only God has capacity to do that.

Desperation is a bad thing. I can't imagine making money that I wouldn't enjoy openly and peacefully.. What's then the point of the money?

The only good thing about money is its utility - to buy you choices, freedom, options. If you have tons of money but lack freedom and choices, then the money has no utility. Money then becomes a curse, not a blessing.

These animals who take to armed robbery and kidnapping do not understand this simple concept. They just want to make money for its own sake. And afterwards they are forced to sneak around in dark corners and obscure places - jumping around and looking over their shoulders 24/7. Is that life? Pathetic bastards.

ElPadrino33:
This man is not worse than all these politicians that have stolen funds leading directly or indirectly to the loss of many innocent souls. God alone is the ultimate judge!

You people should stop parroting this daft argument. He is not better than politicians means what? Are you saying they should leave him alone? Do you know what direct, person to person violent crime means? Go and tell one of his victims that he is not better than politicians, and then come back to tell us how that went.

You're probably an armed robber or kidnapper, or maybe your father is.

Too many retarded criminals on this forum.

This shit gives me the creeps.

But I don't understand how he opened the bonnet. What did he fiddle with under the left fender?

ZACHIE:
Liars.
Can't these tale bearers be factual for once? Must we praise our antiquated police force, over and over again?

Yes. They did a great job apprehending the felon but to claim there were long hours of gunfire exchange is to tell a shameless lie.
Not a shot was fired according to dwellers of the street.

Don't claim unnecessary trophies please.

By the way, why was there no mention of moneys seized in the house?

Tell us more. It's clear you have firsthand info.
