20-year-old man arrested for conniving with friends to kill his stepmother in Anambra over N1million.

A 20-year-old man identified as Ekenedilichukwu Okeke has been detained by the Anambra State Command for allegedly killing his 54-year-old stepmother Mrs. Theresa Okeke for N1 million.

According to reports, the deceased, a National Population Commission (NPC) accountant, was found strangled to death on September 28, 2022, at her home in No. 4 Umuziocha, the state capital of Awka.

The Commissioner of Police, Mr. Echeng Echeng, presented the suspect and his three accomplices before the state police headquarters in Amawbia on Friday, November 18, 2022. He claimed that Ekenedilichukwu conspired with his accomplices to kill the woman in order to withdraw N1 million from her bank account.

According to the commissioner;

“One Mrs. Theresa Okeke, aged 54 years, an Accountant with National Population Commission, Awka, was murdered in her residence at Number 4, Umuziocha, Awka. Immediately the case was reported, her stepson, Ekenedilichukwu Okeke, aged 20 years, who slept in the same house with the deceased, was arrested for interrogation.
He claimed that armed robbers stormed their residence and killed his stepmother. However, after an intelligence-based interrogation, he eventually confessed to the crime and named his accomplices.
Detectives from State CID, Awka, swiftly mobilized in search of the accomplices which led to the arrest of three additional suspects, namely; Peter Jideofor, aged 23 years, Chukwuemeka Christopher, aged 29 years and Chisom Emmanuel Dike, aged 22 years.
They have all confessed to the crime and disclosed that it was the deceased’s stepson who contracted them to come and kill the deceased to enable them transfer the sum of N1 million from her account, having known her phone password. The suspects will soon be charged to court”

The stepson claimed during his procession that he had to recruit friends to help him perform the act after the deceased, who had been helping him pay his expenses, ordered he leave her residence due to a misunderstanding.

In his words;

“I finished writing JAMB and was doing some menial jobs to enable me raise money for my university fees. I also worked for NPC 3 months ago. I had misunderstanding with my mom, along the line and she scolded me. I pleaded with her, thinking she’s forgiven me. But the next day she asked me to leave the house. I called my dad and elder brother to inform them of the development but my dad didn’t pick. It was my brother who picked that I told what happened

After, I called my friends to help me get money from my mom so I can use it for my fees ahead of my admission. Along the line, she collapsed and slumped. I’m very remorseful and praying God to have mercy on me and the government to forgive me.”

According to one of the conspirators, musician Peter Jideofor, who admitted to tying the dead woman’s lips shut as she tried to scream, they wouldn’t have killed her if she had given them her pin number.

He said;

“He told me he had an issue with his step mother that I should help him extract N1m from her. It was around 2am, with my other guys. We tied her hands and feet. When she wanted to shout, I personally tied her mouth. In the process, she stopped breathing. It was at that point I left because my mission was not to kill. When I was leaving, I told the guy to keep checking on her every 30minutes.
But it was in the morning she told us that she’s dead. All of us were in shock and fled, but I stayed indoors until the day I was arrested. I must confess that I didn’t plan to kill her. I feel very guilty. This is my first time. I’m 24 years. We had planned to do transfer but she refused to provide the pin number.”

Police rescue a 17-year-old girl allegedly starved, beaten, and imprisoned in a goat pen by her aunt in Plateau.

A 17-year-old, allegedly kept captive in a goat cage by her aunt for more than a week in Rikkos, Jos North Local Government Area of the state, has been rescued by the Plateau State Police Command.

She was saved after a neighbor notified Jos’ National Human Rights Commission, who then called the police.
According to The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the aunt was always abusing and starving the girl, who was an orphan.

On Friday, November 18, 2022, Mrs. Grace Pam, the Plateau coordinator of the National Human Rights Commission, issued a statement confirming the girl’s rescue.

In her words;

“The commission received information from an anonymous complainant that the girl was locked up on the balcony of a house by her aunt. She was living with her grandmother before she came to the aunt’s house because the grandmother was ill and could not continue to care for her.
The complainant alleged that the aunt traveled for close to a week and left the girl without food. Investigation revealed that the girl was truly malnourished and had scars on her hands, neck, and other parts of her body.
The marks resulted from incessant beatings she received from her aunt. The matter was reported to the police where the aunt’s statement was taken upon return from her trip.
The girl has been provided with temporary shelter until she recovers. We also found out that the orphan girl was never allowed to go out, but was locked up in the house and not fed. She has been taken to hospital by one of our partners to ensure proper medical care”

Pam lamented the recent rise in incidents of child abuse and appealed with citizens to stop abuses, pointing out that “as we speak, there is a case of another victim, a nine-year-old girl, who came to stay with her aunt barely two months ago. We had to rescue her on Thursday from her aunt; she beat her mercilessly, but thank God, she did not get her blind, but got her injured in the eye. We took her to the hospital on Friday with scars resulting from serious beatings.

When our staff went there, she was locked up in a zinc house where the aunt keeps her goats. The girl is looking forward to going back to her parents” she said.

Woman allegedly battered by her husband over disagreement with his girlfriend in Rivers

A Nigerian woman, Beatrice Mbari, has called for justice after she was allegedly beaten to pulp by her husband following a disagreement with his mistress in Rivers State.

Mbari, a mother of five who recalled the incident in a chat with Punch, said trouble started when her son confronted her husband’s alleged lover, simply identified as Helen, who later reported the confrontation to her husband.

This infuriated her husband, who, as soon as he arrived home, began to act violently and attacked her. Beatrice alleged that he beat her mercilessly, dragged her around the kitchen, and then threw her out of the house.

She further reveled that this was not the first time he was battering and assaulting because of his lover.

“My husband beat me and damaged my face. He punched me in the eye. I can’t even see clearly. He dragged me in the kitchen and said he will kill me and nothing will happen.

“I was pleading with him to leave me. I asked him what I did. It was one of my neighbour that came to rescue me. He even drove her away. He stripped me and threw me outside. Since then, I and my children have been managing with my elder sister. That was why I arrested him yesterday.” She said.

She said the matter was reported to the Central Police Station at the old Port Harcourt township, and the husband has now been arrested.

“I asked his girlfriend, Helen, why she told my husband what my son said about his father. I don’t know what the girlfriend told him. Because when he returned from her house, he started beating me. Helen is the reason my husband wants to kill me and my children, so that she will control the family.” She said.

Beatrice, whose both eyes were visibly swollen and had bruises below her eyes and ears as well as on other parts of her body, called on the International Federation of Women Lawyers to come to her aid.

“I want FIDA to come and help me so that this thing will not happen again. Then let him take care of his children. I don’t want to stay with him, because he will kill me one day. I also thank the police that helped me to arrest him,” she added.

A Nigerian lady was left bamboozled after receiving a brand new iPhone 14 Pro Max from a complete stranger she met on Instagram.

A video making rounds online captures the moment she took delivery of the new phone and she couldn’t believe her eyes.

Speaking in the video, the lady said the guy reached out to her on Instagram and upon their first conversation offered to upgrade her phone to an iPhone 14 Pro Max.

He then requested for her phone number and home address for the delivery. However she said she gave him a wrong address out of concern for her safety.

According to her, she was surprised to receive a call from a delivery agent who informed her that she has a package.

Still fearing for her safety, she filmed a video of the moment she collected the package from the delivery guy, as well as when she unboxed the package which truly contained a brand new iPhone 14 Pro Max worth over a million naira.

Woman arrested

A Nigerian woman, Mrs Nnamaka Nwachukwu, has been arrested by operatives of the Plateau State Police Command for allegedly torturing an 11-year-old girl, Margaret Joshua, to death in Jos.

The suspect, who works as a microbiologist at the National Veterinary Research Institute, Vom (NVRI) Plateau, was accused of forcing the minor to sit in a bowl of hot water, causing severe injuries in her buttocks and private part.

Mrs Nwachukwu, a resident of K-Vom, Jos south LGA, was also said to have tortured and inflicted injuries on the minor until she gave up the ghost.

Spokesman of the police command, Alfred Alabo, who confirmed the incident on Thursday, November 17, said the minor escaped from her hometown in Kebbi state over insecurity and was brought to Jos by a ‘helper’ who gave her out as a maid to the suspect.

Woman arrested

However, the suspect started beating her at the slightest provocation and refused to register her in school despite promising to sponsor her education.

Grace Pam, coordinator of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) in Plateau, said the injuries on the minor’s corpse is consistent with that of torture but the suspect claims the girl fell into a bowl of hot water and ran away from home for 24hrs.

Pam further revealed that the girl was found in a building (pictured below) and was taken to the police station before she was rushed to a hospital where she passed away few hours later.

“Our attention was called about the situation on Monday, by a staff of the Jos University Teaching Hospital (JUTH), who said that an 11-year-old girl had been seriously beaten up and injured by her guardian,” Pam said.

“On getting to the hospital, we saw several old and new scars, and injuries on her entire body. We were told that she was taken to Mandela hospital in K-Vom, but was referred to JUTH due to the severity of her wounds.

“When we met the suspect at the police station where she was initially detained, she claimed that the girl used to masturbate, and so she was beating her to serve as punishment to make her stop.

“She claimed she did not know what used to come over her each time she beats the girl because she quickly regrets it after the act.

“The suspect also claimed that the deceased fell into hot water after which she ran out of the house and did not return for almost 24 hours.”

Meanwhile, the police are still investigating the case and will charge the suspect to court soon.
