The convicted billionaire kidnapper, Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike, popularly known as Evans and his co-defendant Joseph Emeka, charged  with  murder and attempted kidnap have opted for an option of plea bargain.

The state lead counsel, Yusuf Sule, informed the court about the plea bargain option on Thursday when the case was called for re-arraignment.

The case was called for re-arraignment before Justice Adenike Cokers of an Ikeja High Court.

Mr Evans and his co-defendant were to be re-arraigned on an amended five-count charge bordering on murder, attempt to murder, conspiracy to commit felony to wit: kidnapping and attempt to murder.

Mr Sule informed the court that the case was for re-arraignment but aware the defendants had applied for a plea.
The prosecutor, however, said the plea bargain terms were being considered by the Attorney-General of Lagos State, Lawal Pedro 

(SAN).
