trained vehicle panel beater in Abia state, Uche
Udoma who was arrested by the Umuahia Central
Police, said he had been without work for a long
time, hence resorted to robbery to raise money in
order to save his son who was seriously sick.
He said:
“I’m a car panel beater and I have not done any job
for some time now, even when my son became sick
and was hospitalised and I needed some money to
pay his bill.
“That was what led me into stealing. I broke into my
neighbour’s house and stole her Plasma television,
but I was caught in the act and the television set was
collected back from me.”
He was arrested by operatives of the Anti-
kidnapping Unit attached to the Umuahia Central
Police Station after they received a distress call
from Dr. Chioma Okoli, who owned the house
that was being burgled by the suspect at
Amakama Housing Estate in Umuahia.
