Over
the years research has revealed that Latin kidnapped the word
"plagion" from ancient Greek and it ended up in English as
"plagiarism". It literally means "to kidnap" - most
commonly, to misappropriate content and wrongly attribute it to oneself.
However, the word plagiarism is derived from the Latin
word plagiare, which means to kidnap or abduct. The word began to be used in
the English language sometime during the 1600s.
While it originally meant to literally kidnap someone, it gradually came to mean to pass off, in part of whole, someone else's work as your own.
According to oxford Advance Learners dictionary, it
means to take someone away by force and illegally, esp. in order to obtain money
in return for releasing them.

K: Kid: To Kid oneself/someone in a deceptive manner or illegally
I:
Identity: Either fake or real identity
D:

urthermore, research made by the “The Arts of
Public Safety Research”a book written by the Author Olusola David, Ayibiowu
stated in his book that “Kidnapping Is An Abuse of Public Safety”
Therefore, in order to prove this statement we need to critically look at what happened on the June 10, 2017, Lagos, Nigeria about the Genius Billionaire Kidnapper.
Inside Story Of The Last Abduction That Nailed Billionaire Kidnapper Evans
Report has it that for seven years, suspected dare-devil kidnapper,
Chukwudemeje George Onwamadike aka Evans, escaped police dragnet. His escape
during his daring kidnapping runs had conferred on him supernatural invincibility
of a sort. His reign, however, came to an end last Saturday, after a police
special squad led by Abba Kyari, an Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP),
arrested him at his No 3, Fred Shoboyede Street, Magodo, Lagos home, after a
fierce gun battle which lasted several hours.
An abduction carried out by his gang on February 14 this year had paved way for his demystification. On that day, which coincidentally was celebrated all over the world as St. Valentine’s Day otherwise known as lovers day, a pharmacist and the owner of Maydon Pharmaceutical Company, Ilupeju, Lagos, Mr. Donatus Dunu, was abducted by Evans’ gang.
Dunu had barely left his office in the when he was blocked
by a vehicle. Before he knew it, Evans’ gun-wielding men had stepped out of the
vehicle and bundled the pharmacist into their vehicle and sped off to No 21,
Prophet Asaye Close, New Igando, a Lagos suburb where he was kept for three
months.
Evans subsequently demanded the payment of a sum of one million euros as ransom. Despite efforts to make Evans see reason and reduce the money, he would have none of it, even after a sum of N100 million had been paid to him. It was either the money was paid or Dunu paid with his life.
While looking for the money, Dunu’s
wife, who is also a director of the company, staff members organized prayers
for the safe return of their boss. One of the workers said: “We did not only
pray but engaged in fasting too. Who will not pray and fast if his or her boss
was in such condition? It was really traumatic for us.” by Sahara Reporters

Billionaire Kidnapper: How me and my gang hijacked bullion vans, stole N200m – Evans
Billionaire kidnap kingpin, Chukwudi
Onuamadike, also known as Evans has revealed how he and his gang attacked
bullion vans while he was in the crime world.
Addressing journalists on Friday,
Evans disclosed in one of their operations along Aba-Port Harcourt road in Abia
State, they made away with the sum of N200m. Evans noted that the operation was
one of three of such.
According to Evans, “In 2007, I
travelled to South Africa to deal in drugs and returned to Lagos the following
year after a customer, who did not want to pay for a drug I supplied him, shot
me on the shoulder.
“With the little money I had from my
trip to South Africa, I came back to Nigeria and a friend of mine, Kingsley,
introduced me to one of his gang members known as Too-Much-Money in Abia State.
“Too-Much-Money got me involved in
the bullion van robbery.
“We hijacked a tipper we found on
the Aba-Port Harcourt Road to intercept the bullion van.
“We forced the driver and his police
escort to open the van. We got N80m from the van and I was given N1.8m as my
share.
“Another operation was in Enugu
where I met a gang leader called ND.
“We adopted the same tactic to
attack another bullion van containing N200m. When we wanted to share the
proceeds, ND collected our guns and gave us N200, 000 each.”
Evans noted that the third robbery
operation was on Umuahia Road where he and some new gang members attacked
another bullion van and made N7m.
He said
that the N7m he got from the operation was used to stock his shop in Lagos
Notorious kidnap kingpin Evans drops another bombshell, says
he was once a victim of kidnap By: Wale
Akinola
- The notorious kidnap kingpin,Evans has dropped another bombshell - He said he was once a victim of kidnap in 2015 by another gang of kidnappers in Anambra state - Evans was on Saturday June 10 arrested by the police detectives in Lagos Another shocking revelation emerged on Thursday June 16 as the notorious kdinapper, Chukwudubem Onwuamadike a.k.a Evans, told police detectives how he was abducted in 2015 by another gang of kidnappers operating in the eastern part of the country. Vanguard reports that the detectives succeeded in recovering a gold ring worth $75,000 from his house. NAIJ.com gathered that Evans said a gang of desperate kidnappers trailed him from Nnewi, his home town sometime in 2015, while he was cruising in his brand new black latest G-Wagon towards the commercial city of Onitsha in Anambra state. He said the period was the era when he was terrorizing the east with his criminal contemporaries like late Ngwu Ekere Omu, Vampire, Osisikanku and others. He disclosed that when he got to a spot close to Onitsha, the gun-totting young men intercepted and bundled him into their car and zoomed off towards Enugu-Onitsha express way.
According to him, “When they ended up at a
hidden spot which I later knew was inside one of the riverside areas in Anambra
state, they brought me out for interrogation. I boldly introduced myself as
Evans. Initially, they were shocked but later they started looking at me with
skepticism. “I then asked them the name of their leader and after they
reluctantly told me it was ND, short for Ndubisi, I informed them that he was
serving a prison term at the Port-Harcourt prisons. “That was when they started
believing that I was the notorious Evans, widely known in crime circles.
Nevertheless, they put a call to their leader in Port-Harcourt prison and as
soon as they mentioned my name, he ordered them to take me back to where they
picked me without delay.” It was learned that ND, their leader, who is still
serving a long sentence in Port-Harcourt prisons, masterminded the first kidnap
incident in Lagos state in 2011. Also, police detectives have recovered a gold
ring worth over $75 from the house of the kidnap kingpin after carrying out
another thorough search in his mansion at Magodo phase 2, Lagos. Documents
discovered inside the house also showed that just four days before his arrest,
he sent N20 million to his wife in Ghana through a Bureau de Change which was
delivered to her in Ghanaian currency, Cedi. This is as they were said to have also
recovered another mansion belonging to him in Ghana, making three, the number
of mansions he has in the West African country. NAIJ.com also gathered that
detectives attached to the Inspector-General of Police Intelligence Team, IRT,
led by Abah Kyari, have commenced inventory of all the landed and physical
properties owned by the arrested kidnap kingpin, Evans. This is as they are
also investigating all the transactions he carried out with banks in the
country within the period he was terrorising Nigerians. Reliable sources
informed that they will spread their dragnets to every part of the country
where he operated and even neighbouring countries where he was reputed to
always run to after collecting huge ransoms from his victims. Sources said
Ghana and South Africa will top the list of countries where they hope to liaise
with International police, Interpol, in tracking the suspect’s assets.
PAY
ATTENTION: Read the news on Nigeria’s #1 new app According to the sources;
another vital area the detectives will focus on is telecommunication. “This is
because we would like to find out how he was able to knock out our intelligence
efforts towards arresting him for so long.
"If not that the
Inspector-General of Police equipped us with the latest communication gadgets,
it would have been impossible to arrest Evans. “So far, Evans, has been trying
to recant all the confessional statements he made earlier during interrogation
but I assure you that very soon, he will open up and we will nail him finally,”
police sources stated.’’
NAIJ.com had previously reported that Evans said he
would not have been arrested if his charms had not failed him at the last
minute. He said he didn’t know what went wrong with his charm that made it
possible for the police to apprehend him.
Kidnap kingpin, Evans reveals how he gave his father N3m, SUV
Suspected kidnap kingpin Chukwudumeje George Onwuamadike, alias Evans, has revealed how he gave his father N3million cash, a Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) and a Hilux Van before he stopped visiting his hometown, Umudim, Nnewi in Anambra State.
Evans made the allegation when detectives took him to one of the dens his gang used for the detention of victims This is contrary to the earlier claim by his father who said he had not given him any meaningful thing.
Evans, who said he believed his father must have started the pig husbandry from the money he gave him, blamed the man for what he turned into.
He said: “Before I stopped going home, I gave my father N3million and I bought him jeep and pick up van.
“I believe that part of the money I
gave him was what he used to establish the piggery business. Had it been my
father had taken good care of me, I wouldn’t have become what I am today.
“I dropped out of school at JSS2,
when my father refused to send me to school. I have been fending for myself
since I was 10 with the support of my mother, presently my mother is paralyzed.
She’s on sick bed.
“My wife was only lying that she did
not spend part of my money. She only wants Nigerians to have sympathy for me.
She did not know I was into kidnapping. I only told her that I am into drug,
which she advised me to stop because it is dangerous.”
“I believe in God, that was why I
mandated my wife to always wake my children up for prayers. My favourite bible
passage is Psalm 23. My wife does not know why I loved the Psalm so much. I
loved it because of the sins I have committed. I always asked my children to
ask for forgiveness for me and also pray that I should not die young.
“I believe in God, because he’s the
only one that can save me from the problem I find myself in. I believe it was
greed that pushed me into kidnapping. I don’t believe in Juju.”
Although detectives said Evans held
Chief James Udoji and five other victims hostage in the Jakande camp until
their families paid demanded ransom, Evans said he only had three victims
inside the building.
He said: “I have just three camps in
Lagos where I kept some of the victims, I kidnapped, and the camps are in
Jakande, Igando and Gowon area of the state.
One of
notorious kidnapper Evans’ victims who paid $1.2million dollars to regain his
freedom has narrated the horror he suffered at Evans’ hands.
Chief
James Uduji, Chairman of Cometstar cable Manufacturing Limited, was released by
his abductors after 42 days. He had just returned to Nigeria from Canada where
he visited his wife who gave birth a month before. One week after, he was
kidnapped.“ Another victim Emesbos who paid
$300,000, while the third person paid N250,000.
How they operate
How they
operate is that, they keep a hostage keeper, which is someone that would be
guiding kidnap victims so that any time their boss wants to call, he would call
that person. When he calls the person, the person would bring the phone to the
victim and hold the phone for you talk to him.
They
were always communicating. They did not maltreat me because of my condition but
I heard them maltreating the victim in the other room with hot iron and the
person would be crying.
Before
they start that, they would go and put on their generator so that their
neighbours would not be hearing. That guy was a terror.
Feeding pattern
They
were feeding me with one useless Indomie. I was just managing to eat to keep my
life moving. They asked what kind of drugs I was taking but I told them I was
not on drugs. I did not make trouble with them but there was a day I tried to
escape. I was scared whether all the neighbours were their gang members or not.
Again,
even if I would have escaped, I would have been naked because before you go to
the bathroom, they take away your boxers. When you finished, you knocked at the
door and turned your face to the wall as they gave you your boxer to wear.
They
would blind fold you and put you in chains again.
