EVIL NEPHEW: Lures uncle’s wife withfake job offer, kidnaps her 8-month-oldbaby

An interstate commercial bus driver, 22-
year-old Chisom Nwaiwu is now cooling
his heels in the custody of the Anti-Kidnap­
ping Squad of the Imo State Police
Command.
Nwaiwu, a native of Amuzi in Obowo
Local Government Area of Imo State was
alleged to have masterminded the
abduction of the eight-month baby of his
uncle after luring the wife with a fake job
offer and then getting her drunk.
As Sunday Sun learnt from the Imo State
Police Commissioner, Abdulmajid Ali, the
incident happened on October 23, 2014,
after Nwaiwu introduced a member of a
kidnapping gang, 24-year-old Chibuzor
Ugochukwu, to his uncle’s wife, Chidime
Okechalam, who needed employment.
Ugochukwu bought local gin worth N100
and gave to the uncle’s wife to drink and
she had a good go at it and got very
drunk, but was still able to return home.
With stage one of their inglorious plan
carried out, the conspirators then
followed while she was still drunk. Her
baby was on her back. With alcohol
having dulled her senses, and at gunpoint,
Ugochukwu took the baby off her back.
In an interview with Sunday Sun at the
headquarters of the Anti Kidnapping
Squad, Nwaiwu recounted his role in the
abduction and revealed how the plot was
hatched and executed: “I was the one who
organized the kidnapping of the eight-
month-old baby of my uncle.
Her weak point is that she is a drunkard.
So I introduced one of my friends,
Chibuzor Ugochukwu, to her, who said
that he would get a job for her, because
she was not working. Ugochukwu bought
alcoholic drink for her. She got drunk and
then went home with her child.
On the way, and at 7.00pm we kidnapped
the baby from her and handed it over to
our contact person, Onwa, who lives in
Umuahia in Abia, who was to sell the
baby for the sum of N250,000.”
Meanwhile, Ali said that the prime suspect
in the abduction tale, Onwa, who was
supposed to sell the baby is still at large
and the baby is yet to be recovered.
