Two undergraduates of the Ebonyi State University, James Okoh and Victor Uchenna Okefie, have been accused of killing a US based lady, Mrs. Stella Uhuo.
The late Mrs. Uhuo, who is said to have been a benefactor to one of the alleged killers, James Okoh, informed him of her visit to Nigeria and asked him to come pick her from the airport. He is said to have turned up with a friend. Her family members are also said to have turned up, but she opted to go with Okoh and his friend so she would deliver some things.
Unknown to her, he had ulterior motives.
They are said to have diverted from the busy Enugu-Abakaliki road to an isolated area, where they killed her.
Confessing to the act, Okoh revealed he ran to his hostel, immediately he committed the act.
“We dumped her corpse along Enugu/Abakaliki express road, on the Enugu State side. We took her dollars and luggage including ipad and broke the SIM cards of her phones. We ran to my hostel at Ebonyi State University and later went to Sabongari in Abakaliki to change the dollars to Naira and got over N850,000. We burnt the clothes of the deceased, and shared all the male clothes we saw in the luggage.”
