Four other people were arrested in connection with the incident. They are, Kingsley Udemba, 24, Nwogu Anslem 59, Blessing Michael, 25, and Chidinma Godwin, 27.
“While the victim was missing, one Kingsley Udemba, a close friend, showed up and claimed that Princewill was missing because he defrauded him.
The parents of the missing person had to raise N960,000 and paid Kingsley, yet the boy was not released.
Upon investigation and thorough digital analysis, Kingsley collected the ransom as agreed, but he had no knowledge of the victim’s whereabouts. The prophet, who is a family friend and was following the parents to look for Princewill, was indicted. On interrogation, he confessed to the crime,” Ikeokwu added
