Wednesday, August 28, 2024 -Two kidnappers have confessed to kidnapping and selling children after being nabbed by operatives of the Special Squad Aguiyi, Anambra State.
The kidnappers, identified as Chukwuma
Okonkwo and Ifeanyi Okafor (aka Arab), both from Abagana in Anambra State, said
they get commission from the sale of the children and they use the money to
lodge in hotels and live large, causing people to think they are into fraud
(Yahoo Yahoo).
One of their victims, a child
who looks less than 5 years old, identified himself as Chinemerem. He said he
was in his parent's shop when the men kidnapped him. He added that the men were
about to sell him before men with guns (the special squad) caught them.
An official of the special squad
asked the child what he wants done to the criminals and the child responded,
"flog them."
Confessing to the crimes on video,
Chukwuma said: "We steal children and sell. There are three of us.
"One of our gang members is
Chikwado from Ogidi, with Arab, and me (both from Abagana)."
Speaking on how they operate,
Chukwuma said: "We kidnap a child and they give us commission after
selling the child.
"We also steal machine
(motorcycle) and sell."
He continued: "People think we
are into Yahoo but we are not.
"But there is no other crime we
don't commit.
"My main job is kidnapping children. I
also steal in addition to it.
“Our gang leader is Chikwado from Ogidi.
Chikwado's wife is also involved. She's from Awkuzu.”
