‘On January 9, 2025, at about midnight, a case of conspiracy, armed robbery and murder was reported. One Emeka Akwara 19yrs, David Segun, 21yrs, Samuel Ariori, 21yrs and Lukman Ariori, 19yrs ordered an Uber at Chevron in the Lekki area – en-route to Obalende. On getting to Obalende in a lonely area, they robbed and killed the Uber driver by stabbing him multiple times in the neck, unfortunately, they were unable to snatch the vehicle.
With the intervention of good Samaritans within the environs, two suspects were immediately arrested and were handed over to cops attached to Lion Building’ he said.
The two other fleeing suspects, he added, were arrested in the Chevron area of the state while the body of the Uber driver was deposited in the morgue at Mainland Hospital, Yaba.
‘This is their team leader. He was sent home from America by his father. The mother at home could still not handle him. The failure of society is placed on the police. We are not complaining, it is a job we signed up for. They will be facing criminal prosecution right from Monday.
I wonder the value of what this vehicle will fetch in the market that made them snuff the life out of the owner. Probably the man even got the vehicle on hire purchase’ he added-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us? Do you want us to cover your event or programme?
