Enugu State Commissioner of Police, Kanayo Uzuegbu, has been implicated in the alleged abduction, extortion and assault on a prominent businessman in the state, Mr Tochukwu Nzekwe (aka Toshel).
Also fingered in the alleged dastardly plot of abduction, extortion and assault, is one Donald Ekete, the chief executive officer, CEO, EKETESON.

The incident happened on the 26th of September 2024.

The victim, Nzekwe, said he was called for a meeting by CP Uzuegbu, a day prior to the incident over the damaged road and the brutal assault on the truck driver of Toshel Construction and he was assured that the issues would be resolved.

He was also told by Donald Ekete that, no further action was needed. However, what happened next revealed a deeply troubling plot.

Nzekwe was unaware that, he was being tracked by some men led by “Lion-King,” an officer from the Commissioner of Police’s office, accompanied by three other police officers attached to Ekete’s security detail.

According to the reports, these men, alongside the police officers, illegally detained Nzekwe at a hotel where he had been lured under the pretence of a business meeting.

Once there, Nzekwe was ambushed, and his phone was forcibly seized to prevent him from contacting his lawyers. He was allegedly assaulted, handcuffed, and blindfolded, according to the reports.

As his illegal detention escalated, Nzekwe was swiftly arraigned before Magistrate Chukwuani at about 5:20 pm, with three fully armed police officers present in the courtroom, creating an intimidating atmosphere.

The group, which included among others, a police prosecutor identified as Mr. Ajogwu, proceeded to take disturbing photos and videos of Nzekwe during the hearing.

In a shocking twist, Donald Ekete allegedly demanded a ransom of N28,350,000 million for Nzekwe’s release from his unlawful detention saying it’s the money CP said he should collect to make it possible for his release and account details (0003075011 Access Bank) was sent through sms for the payment to be made.
