According to him, a pastor he asked for money
instructed him to kill a young girl and obtain her
faeces.
He said the pastor promised him N100,000 if he
was able to accomplish the task.
According to him, "I attend a popular church
around Ketu Street, Aguda but I live with my
parents in Badagry. I just finished secondary school
and I have been very broke so I approached the
pastor for money but he told me that I should
strangulate a little girl.
"He said when strangulating the girl, she would
pass out faeces. The pastor said I should obtain the
faeces and bring it to him. He said if I could do this,
he would give me N100,000.
"So, on December
30, 2013, I
approached a young
girl, Bose Ogoja. Her
mother sells food in
Badagry and I
usually patronise
them, so she trusted
me. I told the girl
that I wanted to
show her something
and that she should
follow me. So I took
her to an abandoned
NITEL building and
locked the door.
"I pressed her neck
tightly and she
passed out faeces. I
was, however, not able to get the faeces because I
was caught before I could escape."
The suspect, an indigene of Onitsha, Anambra
State, pleaded for mercy, adding that this was his
first crime.
State Police Public Relations Officer, Ngozi Braide,
said the boy was arrested by neighbours in the
area and handed over to the Badagry Police
Division.
Braide said the pastor, who allegedly gave the boy
the instruction, had been arrested and was already
cooperating with the police.
While displaying the gruesome picture of the slain
girl, Braide said: "He was arrested in an
uncompleted building. The security guard manning
the building told the police that he saw the boy
entering the building with the girl.
"He said a few minutes later, he heard the girl
screaming and later saw the boy leaving. The
security guard raised the alarm and the neighbours
were alerted and they arrested the boy."
On entering the building, the discovered that the
girl was dead.
"The picture of the girl's corpse shows that the girl
was naked and defecated on the floor."
Meantime, the police also arrested a 39-year-old,
Michael Udom, for allegedly stealing a vehicle
belonging to the company he worked for.
According to the police, the suspect attempted to
sell the vehicle for N250,000 in the Ijora Badia area
of the state but was arrested before he could do so.
The suspect, however, denied the allegation, saying
he took permission from his boss before taking the
bus home with him.
He said, "I work with a courier company. After the
close of work on December 25, 2013, I told my
manager that I wanted to use the vehicle to pack
things from my house and he agreed. Shortly after
parking the vehicle, someone called me from my
house saying he wanted to buy the vehicle.
"I refused and told them that I could not sell the
vehicle without the company's consent. However, I
did not know a policeman was there. He also posed
as a buyer and arrested me."
