Estate agency narrates how she killed a female home seeker after collecting N150,000 from her
In a tragic incident that has sent shockwaves throughout the Benue State community, a young woman named Erekaa Dooshimaa was brutally murdered after trusting an estate agent to find her a suitable apartment. The suspect, Shagbaor Ugosor Japhet, was apprehended by the Benue State police command and is currently in custody.
Erekaa Dooshimaa, a promising final-year student at Benue State University in Makurdi, had entrusted Shagbaor Ugosor Japhet with the task of finding her a comfortable and affordable apartment. However, instead of fulfilling his obligation, Shagbaor allegedly used the money she had paid him to place bets.
When Erekaa discovered that Shagbaor had not fulfilled his obligation and had misused her funds, she demanded that he return her money. It was then that Shagbaor allegedly flew into a rage and brutally murdered her.
Fortunately, the diligent efforts of the Benue State police command led to the apprehension of the suspect. Using advanced forensic techniques and thorough investigative work, detectives were able to trace Erekaa's killer after discovering that she had transferred N150,000 to Shagbaor via a POS machine. This breakthrough in the investigation allowed the police to track down and apprehend Shagbaor, who eventually confessed to the crime during interrogation.
This shocking incident is a tragic reminder of the importance of being vigilant and cautious when dealing with strangers, especially when it comes to financial matters. We hope that the Benue State police command will continue to work tirelessly to bring justice to Erekaa's family and loved ones.
“When she arrived at the dark corner of the street where I called her to come I cut her with a machete several times leading to her death. After killing her, I took her body with her iPhone and dumped her body on the street to make it look like someone else killed her”, the publication quoted him as saying.
