Notorious kidnapper Evans' arrest has been blamed on a curse placed on him - His gang members were responsible for the abduction of Ikenga Nnewi - The Nnewi monarch conducted a ritual that reportedly led to his arrest New reports have indicated that Chukwudemeje George Onwuamadike popularly known as Evans was apprehended by the police due to a curse placed on him by the Igwe. The billionaire kidnapper was apprehended by security operatives on Saturday, June 10 sparking commendation from Nigerians to the police for arresting the elusive suspect.
The Nation reports that Nnewi monarch reportedly went around two weeks before Evans’ arrest to place a curse on him over the kidnapping of the Ikenga Nnewi (keeper of the Oracle of justice).
It was reported that the Ikenga was released before the abductors reached their detention camp due to disagreement among them but he has vowed that their end was near regardless of whether they released him or not. After his release, the Ikenga proceeded to meet the monarch to tell him that those responsible for his abduction were natives which prompted a ritual.
A native of Nnewi who spoke on the condition of anonymity said: “Two days after the Igwe and his chiefs went round the communities with Ofor Nnewi (staff), a house, where the kidnappers usually held their victims hostage in the town was exposed.
The house is near a prominent politician’s house but no one knew something like that was happening there. “One afternoon, the man in charge of the house started acting like he was insane. He left the door open and that was how all the victims ran out. People saw them and the house owner was lynched after his confession.
“A lot of people were implicated in the kidnapping business of Evans and most of them were silently arrested. “It was the Igwe’s curse that led to his arrest. The Ikenga told them the day of his kidnap that if they left him, they are in trouble and if they took him with them, they would still be in trouble. “As they were going with the man, the kidnappers started arguing and fighting among themselves, that was how they dropped him and he went to the Igwe.”
He said he didn’t know what went wrong with his charm that made it possible for the police to apprehend him .
According to New Telegraph, Evans said his juju man was a traditional ruler in Anambra who had assured that he would never be apprehended. He said: “The native doctor resides in Nnewi, Anambra State. "He is a traditional ruler. After police busted our Igando hideout, he told me to have no fear. He said nothing would happen. He told me that nobody would be able to catch or arrest me. I believed him. I don’t know what went wrong.”
