Final year student slaughtered by security guard

A final year student of Federal Polytechnic, Nekede, Imo State, was murdered by a three-man gang.

According to Vanguard reports, after 24-year-old Innocent Ndukwe was slaughtered, the perpetrators went ahead to steal his Pathfinder Sports Utility Vehicle with registration number, Lagos KRD 109 BP, two plasma television sets, one home theatre and assorted personal effects.

Imo state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Taiwo Lakanu, discloses the circumstances surrounding the murder and the gang's subsequent arrest.

“Soon after getting credible information about the heinous act, the police control room quickly alerted operations of the command and they immediately searched the entire state.

‘’As a result, the assailants, who tried to escape the eagle-eyed operatives, were subsequently apprehended along West End-Old Nekede Road, Owerri, ”the CP said.

According to Mr. Lakanu, the late Ndukwe was found in a pool of his own blood in a toilet in his residence at 18 Enuwa Street, Egbu, in the Owerri North Local Government Area. He also disclosed that the attack was orchestrated by the victim's security guard.

The names of the suspects were given as David Kwaguru, 30, from Sirwo in Langtang North Local Government Area of Plateau State; Friday Ayuba, 28, a native of Keyelda in Jos North Local Government Area of Plateau State and Francis Amos, 23, a native of Pingali in Langtang South Local Government Area also in Plateau State.

Lakanu appealed to members of the public to be careful and circumspect in choosing the people they employed as security guards.

“Events have since proved that most security guards often turn against their masters by collaborating with criminals to deal with them,” the CP said.
