Convicted notorious kidnapper, Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike, popularly known as Evans, has asked for a plea bargain.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the state lead counsel, Mr Yusuf Sule, informed the court about the plea bargain option on Thursday when his murder and attempted kidnap case was called for re-arraignment.
The case came before Justice Adenike Cokers of an Ikeja High Court.
NAN reports that Evans and a co-defendant were to be re-arraigned on an amended five-count charge bordering on murder, attempt to murder, conspiracy to commit felony, wit: kidnapping and attempt to murder.
Sule informed the court that the case was for re-arraignment but he was aware the defendants had applied for plea.
The prosecutor, however, said the plea bargain terms were being considered by the Attorney-General of Lagos State, Mr Lawal Pedro (SAN).
