A security man who confessed to killing his boss has given a very weird reason for his deadly act.
The suspects
A security guard has been arrested by the Imo State Police Command for allegedly stabbing his boss to death and stealing his belongings.
According to Punch, the seurity guard who was identified as David Kwaguru, said he committed the dastardly act because he wanted to celebrate Christmas lavishly.
The Commissioner of Police, Mr. Taiwo Lakanu, after killing the suspect, the security guard and two of his friends, Friday Ayuba and Francis Amos, made away with the deceased’s Nissan Pathfinder with number plate, KRD109AD, two plasma TV sets, one home theatre and other valuables.
Confessing to the crime, the security guard said that the rationale behind their evil act was that they needed money to celebrate Christmas next month.
He said, “Since oga Ndukwe had the money (because of his wealthy parents) and expensive household electronics, we decided to kill him, put the devices inside his vehicle and drive to Plateau State where we come from."
While parading the suspects, the CP said the police control room got a call on the incident and policemen raced to the crime scene.
He said, “As a result, the assailants who tried to escape were subsequently apprehended along West-End old Nekede road, Owerri.”
He said that the deceased was found in a pool of blood in a toilet at his residence when policemen arrived.
