The suspect of kidnappers were Uche Umerua and Prophet
Kenneth Alozie, have been arrested for kidnapping two
siblings at Igando area of Lagos state on Wednesday August 17th. 35-year-old Uche who is a barber in their area and well
known to the children, went to their school during closing
hours and asked them to follow him. According to him, their
mother asked him to bring them home. The children followed
Uche who took them to one prophet for spiritual work.
'One Lady Chioma, who specializes in abducting
children, asked me to abduct two children for her. I
picked up the children on their way back from school
lesson at Akesan Bus Stop at about 12noon. I handed
them over to Mama Chioma, who took the children to
a prophet. I was asked to bring N6,000 so that a
charm will be made for me to enable me bring in
more children for them. The woman and prophet
asked me to leave the building that they will give me
a call. Unfortunately, on getting to my place of work,
police apprehended me.”he said.
Denying claims that he is part of the kidnappig
syndicate, Prophet Kenneth Alozie of Hope in God Living
Ministry said:
“Mama Chioma is a member of my church. She
brought in Mr. Uche and the two children for payers.
Mr. Uche explained to me that his wife abandoned
him and their two children for over a year now and he
needs prayers for his wife to return back home".
When interrogated, the six year old victim said.
"They gave me rice and stew. They also bought drinks
for us. He told us that it was our mummy that said he
should buy them for us. I started crying when I did not
see my mummy again. They did not cover our eyes.
He said he was going to carry us to see my mummy
but he carried me to another woman’s house. The
place is not a church.”
Mother of two of the kidnapped children said:
“It was my sister that went to pick my children from
the lesson venue. Unfortunately, when she got there
she didn’t see them. I became worried and went to
the police station to report. The police said we should
go look for them first in the neighbourhood and ask
my friends if they were with them. Luckily, one of the
children who saw when the barber took my children,
said he saw my children with him. People can be wicked
