According to Elohor Maureen Idolor, an indigene of Olomoro Community in Isoko South Local Government Area, her boyfriend and others told her that they had issues with the victim who was a regular customer at a popular hotel in Imoniyame street, Ughelli.
Idolor, who was a former staff of the hotel, said the ugly incident occurred after she left the hotel.

The deceased, German Believe was shot dead last week in a hotel at Imoniyame Street in Ughelli North Local Government Area of Delta State.
