Confirming his arrest to newsmen, the husband of the deceased and an Assistant Pastor with Seventh Day Adventist Church in the Abarikpo community, Lawyer Steward, recalled the incident.
“Yes Emeka, masterminded the death of my wife after he quarrelled with her that my wife called him a wicked man. He told my wife you will see wickedness today. And that night around 1 am February 12, 2023, those bad boys came to my house and broke the door and took my wife away.
My wife was five months pregnant. Emeka and his gang raped and strangled her to death. The police arrested him on Thursday. Now he is in the police custody. I have gone to the station to give my statement. I want the government to intervene so that justice will prevail. I thank the police for their effort in arresting these bad boys”.
