A high court in Lagos has fixed Friday for the fresh criminal charges filed against Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike, suspected billionaire kidnapper better known as Evans.

The charges were filed by the Lagos state government after the suspect pleaded not guilty in court last week.

The new charges include conspiracy and the attempted kidnap of Vincent Obianodo, chairman of The Young Shall Grow Motors.

Evans was alleged to have murdered a policeman attached to Obianodo.
