A mother of three and wife of kidnapped Anambra businessman, Mr Tochukwu Ezemma, also known as Big Ben has cried out to the governor of the state, Prof Charles Soludo for help.
The woman, Mrs Benedict Ezemma in a post she made on Facebook said since November 12 when her husband was kidnapped by unknown persons, while leaving his hotel for a meeting. He has since then not been found.
Mrs Ezemma in her post said she has been working with services agency in the state to track down her husband’s kidnappers, but feels disappointed that they have turned around to tell her that her husband’s kidnappers cannot be arrested because they are billionaires, and that billionaires are not arrested ‘anyhow’.
In a message she titled; where is my husband, Mrs Ezemma said: “Security has concluded investigations and they know the people my husband went to meet with but till date no action has been taken about the outcome of the investigations.
“The State Governor Prof Charles Soludo (the Chief Security Officer) and his inner cabinet know this, the whereabouts of Bigben and the people he had a meeting with on that fateful day and what happened to him but they have remained silent because they said the so called people he went for the meeting with are high profile and dangerous people.
“Are there people that are bigger than the law and the government in our state now?” She asked.
She said these two months of her husband’s absence has been hellish for her family, begging that for the sake of her one year old child who does not even know the father, and her two other young children, the governor should wade into the matter.
She said: “I can no longer be quiet, it’s been over two months of extreme torture for me, my children and the entire family. I ask again, Where is my husband and the father of my three innocent children? What exactly is the problem with this high profile people? What in the name of God is this problem that cannot be talked over?
“Now they say the case is in court, that the family should get a lawyer to follow up for us in court but we need to know, Who is the case against? What is the person/s charged with?”
She described her husband as someone that cannot be wished away as an unknown quantity in the state, saying he is a serial investor in real estate, fashion industry, and has been a known philanthropist who has helped many youths.
