The police in Ogun state have arrested one Okwudili Okoro
for allegedly attacking his elder brother and his wife and hacking them to
death with machete.
Okwudili, said to be an apprentice under his late brother, Azuibike Okoro, in
company of another person, had stormed the Ijako, Sango Ota residence of the
deceased and hacked him and his wife, Jacinta, while taking their meal.
The spokesperson of the Ogun state police command, Abimbola Oyeyemi, said the
suspect was arrested on Saturday, March 30, following a report that Azuibike
and his wife had been hacked to death by the suspect and one Kenneth, who came
all the way from Sapon in Abeokuta to commit the heinous crime.
“He further stated that when he realized that his brother was not ready to “settle” him, he contracted one Kenneth who is now on the run and they bought two machetes, sharpened them and headed to his deceased elder brother’s house in Ijako.
On getting there, they met the deceased eating with his wife and before he could utter a word, they descended heavily on them and hacked them to death.
On interrogation, the Ebonyi state born suspect, according to the PPRO, claimed to have served his deceased elder brother for three years, and when it was time for his brother to set his own business up, the deceased kept on using delay tactics.
