The Akwa Ibom State Command of the Nigeria Police today(wednesday) paraded one Anona Stephen, 32(see photo below), for allegedly killing Daniel Bassey Okon, a professional barber who resides in itu road in uyo. Both victim and suspects resided in the same area.
He was smoked out of his hiding yesterday by police intelligence with the aid of it's tracking device.
The suspect who has since confessed to the crime, told news men that he decided to butcher Daniel whom he had invited to his house, because he was owing him the sum of N750,000 which he gave him as loan to run his barbing shop business. He claimed that Daniel's refusal to return the money he allegedly gave him angered him and made him use matchet to kill him.
Anona who hails from Njikoka in Anambra state, blamed 'the devil' for his despicable act, saying he has regretted his action.
His victim, the deceased Daniel Bassey hails from Nwaniba in Uruan local government area, but resided in itu road until he met his untimely death in the hands of Stephen who is said to be an HND graduate of Federal Polytechnic, Oko, Anambra state.
Addressing Journalists at the State Police headquarters, Ikot Akpan abia, Commissioner of Police, Gabriel Achong who condemned the dastard act, said Anona Stephen had invited the deceased whom he said was his 'boy' to his house at itu road and unknowing that death was awaiting him, he passed the night in his house only to be cut to pieces in the night by this merchant of death from Anambra state whose only reason for snuffing life out of his victim could not be justified.
The police say the murder suspect neatly chop off the head, hands, laps and the other remaining parts and dumped them in polythene bags, threw them inside the dustbin, while also dumping other body parts in different location in the bush.
