This
story looks like Nollywood story line... How heartless can some people be? Maureen,
who was a staff nurse in Dr. Mucipay Kanu’s hospital in Abeokuta for over three
years before she resigned in July this year, was said to have planned the
abduction of Steve with her boyfriend, Obinna Amoke, who is currently on the
run.
She
said, “I learnt that Doctor paid N1m ransom to one of our members in Abeokuta
before the police detectives arrested us in Enugu.
“I
regretted my action, but it was my boyfriend, who wanted to travel abroad and
wanted to pay my bride price, that put pressure on me to commit this crime.”
The
four suspected kidnappers of a four-year-old-boy, Steve Kanu, in Abeokuta have
confessed that a ransom of N1m was paid to them before he was rescued. Steve
was kidnapped at his parents’ home at Laderin Estate, Abeokuta, on Monday,
November 2, 2015.
He
was, however, rescued alive last Friday by the men of the Ogun State Police
Command, who swooped on the kidnappers at Nsukka, Enugu State, and rescued the
boy alive. Dr. and Mrs. Mucipay Kanu, beamed with smile when they appeared with
their son at the state police command headquarters, Eleweran, on Monday.
“The
boy was kept for eight days in Anayo Amoke’s residence in Isale Ibefun in
Abeokuta, before he was moved to Nsukka, where they kept him in Oluchi Asadu’s
house,” the CP said.
The
Ogun commissioner of Police, Abdulmajid Ali, while parading the suspected
kidnappers, said the manhunt for Obinna was on, adding that he would be
arrested. The suspects are Kenechukwu Amoke (21), Anayo Amoke (35), Oluchi
Asadu (20) and Maureen Uchenna (25).
He
said he would liaise with the Governor of Enugu State, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, to
ensure that Obinna’s house in the village was demolished.
