A man identified as Ofofon and his girlfriend were arrested by the police on Tuesday after they allegedly killed the friend of the man’s girlfriend and sold her body parts.
The man, said to be from Ini Local Government Area in Akwa Ibom State but residing at Afokang by Jebbs Street in Calabar South, killed and butchered the girl and delivered the body parts to buyers in the middle of the night.
“The man’s girlfriend, who sells at a chemist on Monday, lured one of her friends to stay the night in their house, and at night, the duo killed the girl and butchered her into parts. They thought the rain that had been trying to fall would fall and sweep the blood away, but the rain did not fall again, so in the morning, the blood from the pipe in the apartment leading to the drain was filled with blood, and neighbours suspected something terrible had happened and called the police”
Theresa, a resident of the area, told Starmichblog.
She said a minibus picked up the man at about 2.00 am and brought him back that same night.
“He owns three mini buses. One of those buses came to pick him up at about 2.00 am, apparently to deliver the body parts, and brought him back,” the source stated
She said the girl claimed that the man locked her up in his room before killing the girl, but that could be just a statement to try to extricate herself from the murder.
“The man had three kids from the ex-wife, but the woman took the children and ran away a long time ago, which shows that the man had been into evil practice business for a long time”.
She said the man owns a provision shop up the same street and that “some time ago, he tried to use his mother for ritual, and the thing backfired. The mother then packed and went to live at State Avenue, a short distance away from the man, and does not visit him “
The Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Sunday Eitokpah, confirmed the arrest of the couple over suspicion of murder. Investigation is ongoing.
