When we killed him, we did not dump him in the bush but we reported ourselves to a vigilante group who took us to the Special Anti Robbery Squad SARS in Nanka because there is no police station in Nanka” Nwakwo said.
His younger brother chidiebere told our reporter that he was not the person that invited the victim but his senior brother.
“My senior brother told me that there is one homosexaul ‘guy’ coming to their place and that the man promised to give him N20,000 after the sexual encounter. He said that when the man comes he will just collect his money from him and discharge him” he said.
“My brother is not into homosexaul but into comedy and music as well as learning plumbing work in Lagos.
“I came back from Lagos to the village because we had a burial on February 20th, 2020 and I was to travel back to Lagos last week Sunday” he said.
