The Lagos state police command arrested one Emmanuel Okpara for kidnapping and selling his neighbour’s little daughter.
A 3-year-old Success Onyeisi was kidnapped from her home on December 22, 2015 and since then, the girl’s father, Godwin Onyeisi, has not known peace.
Okpara, a close friend of the victim’s family, sympathized and even helped in searching for the girl, until local people recalled that they had seen him with the child about the time she reportedly went missing.
Based on the accusation, Okpara was apprehended and transferred to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad in Ikeja, where he allegedly confessed that he sold the baby for N20, 000.
However, during the interrogation the suspect did not name the buyer or where he could be located.
Meanwhile, Mr Onyeisi could not believe that his close friend, whom he treated like a brother, could commit such a horrible crime.
Speaking with The Nation, the man revealed that he had spent all his savings, about N60, 000, on police investigations and other logistics to no avail.
