Notorious kidnapper Evans fraudulently procured Ghanaian passports for himself, his wife and his children with fake names.
Joy News reports that the kidnap kingpin was issued with a Ghanaian passport this year under a fake name, Asare Nelson in Accra.
His wife’s Nigerian passport bears Uchenna Precious Onwuamadike while her Ghanaian passport indicates Precious Asare born sometime in July of 1985.
He was arrested on June 10 at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport while exiting Nigeria and the Ghanaian passport was found on him during a search.
The document signed by the Nigerian Assistant Commissioner of Police, ACP Abba Kyari revealed that Evans moved his wife and five children to Ghana because of the nature of his business.
The kidnapper’s plush residence in Ghana is said to be located at the Spintex Road in Accra. The duplex structure is where Mrs Uchenna Precious Onwuamadike is said to reside with their children.
This revelation comes despite Uchenna’s denial of the nature of her husband’s business, as she claimed that their relocation to Ghana was to allow good education for their children, adding that she does not know that her husband is wealthy.

According to Ablakwa, the use of Ghanaian passport by Evans exposes the weaknesses in that country’s passport system.
He said: “For now, it is a case to do more with kidnapping and those loopholes in the passport system could be used by terrorists. So, they have to be identified and closed so that terrorists will not exploit that.”
