Notorious billionaire kidnapper, Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike also known as Evans, has arrived the Lagos High Court, Ikeja, Lagos, on Thursday, October 19, for continuation of his trial.

NAIJ.com is currently in the court premises, and can exclusively report that Justice O. H. Oshodi has arrived the courtroom at criminal court 18, the same place where the first trial commenced.
Evans' case has not yet been called at the moment as other cases are being attended to; but there are feelers that the notorious kidnappers' case will be adjourned again even though Evans pleaded guilty at the last time he came to court.
Even though he still appears fresh, it is obvious that he isn't enjoying the luxury he was enjoying while in police custody.
According to further reports from The Sun, only two armoured tanks were packed at the two entrances to this court.
This is unlike the day of his arraignment, in which a heavy security presence was witnessed within and around the court’s perimeters.
However, policemen were also strategically positioned at various corners of Justice Oshodi’s court.
