I believed that from the publication the world would come to your rescue.
Because l believed it is not proper for you to go to jail on behalf of your best friend and he would later take your wife.
So just tell me how it all happened.
ANDREW, THE MUMU: Well this man was my best friend.
At a time, he lost his job and he took to kidnapping.
One day, he kidnapped the daughter of a police officer.
He hid the girl in his room because he was a bachelor.
From his room, he contacted the girl's father.
He demanded the ransom of five million naira and a bag of rice, a bag of beans, tomatoes and canned fish and meat.
The father of the girl said that the girl was his only child and so he could do anything to secure her freedom.
He said that he would provide all the items and even make the money twenty million naira.
He then asked him where he was so that he could bring the items and money down. My friend ignorantly described his house to the father of the girl.
The father of the girl said he had gotten all the requirements and would be in the address in an hour time.
It was then my friend realized his mistakes. He told the father of the girl his exact house address instead of a neutral place. It dawned on him, that the girl's father being a police officer may come down with police men to pick him up like a dried leaf and so he quickly abandoned the girl and fled from his room down to my house to hide.
When he told me the story, l blamed him for running away from his fortunes, because l believed that the girl's father will not come down with policemen but with only the items to rescue his daughter. And so, l went down to his house to collect the items and the ten million naira.
I got there and took over as the real kidnapper.
I stood by the girl who was tied to the bed and l held a knife.
Five minutes later, the father came with about five lorries fully loaded with armed policemen.
They pounced on me and beat me to a state of coma.
I tried to defend myself but they said l should keep quiet because any word l say will be used against me in the court and so l kept quiet. I was jailed for ten years.
When l returned, l found that my friend has taken over my wife and they have already gotten three children.
That was how it all happened.
You can see how my best friend betrayed me. Please help me. Am l a fool to have done all that l did?
Can't you see how foolish my friend was?
