The driver’s story

One of the suspects, Igana, the driver, said he had driven some men, who threatened him with a gun, to Abeokuta but never knew that they were killers. His words:

I followed my uncle—Suspect

On his part, Adekunle said, he followed his

“uncle to Computer Village to sell the deceased phone after Sallah, and I was given ₦1,000 as a gift from my uncle. “That is the only thing I know about the incident. I was not part of those who went to the deceased house.” The person who sold the deceased’s phone, Madu, claimed his is an engineer, saying they brought the phone to him to work on and he charged them ₦7,500. He then assisted to resell the phone to one Abdulrasheed.

On his part, another suspect, John, claimed that he did not know anything about the robbery operation, saying he only needed an android phone for his personal use.

He said:

“It was someone who introduced me to Madu at the Computer Village. After negotiation, I bought the phone from him. “The next thing was I saw Police, who came to arrest me, at my house at Ojodu Berger. I don’t even know how they located my house. I don’t know anything about the phone. I only bought it from Madu.”
