Last night, Two friends went for a sit out in their usual way at Coco Joint close to the popular Mikcentee Joint and Bar in Okuku Yala.
While at the joint, the perpetrator of the crime (name withheld) who is a known cultist was attempting to steal laptop and phones.
During the attempt, one Godwin cautioned his friend to desist from such act.
With annoyance, the cultist brought out a knife and stabbed Godwin, he then ran away.
Godwin the victim was first ignored and treated with levity before he was taken to a nearby chemist for medical care.
The chemist man tried his best but his best was not enough as all efforts was fruitless.
The victim was later taken to Santa Maria hospital at Imaje road where he was confirmed death.
One of the elder sister to the victim told our source that Godwin had earlier reported to them that he is having disagreement with his friend (the murderer) over a girl.
Right now, the residents of Okuku are panicking and are begging for government intervention.
According to an anonymous speaker, Crime rate is not just on the increase in Okuku but it is now unbearable. We are calling on government to proffer solution on how to reduce crime rate to the bearest minimum.
The Police station in Okuku should be given a facelift and sophisticated security personnel should be deployed to okuku. He further stated.
As at the time of filing this report, the killer has escaped to his hideout and the police has also been informed to do the needful.
