CYRIACUS IZUEKWE
Facts have finally emerged on how a 56-year old man, late Rasaki Balogun and his lover, Muyibat Alabi, were allegedly murdered during a sex romp by his jilted wife identified as Mrs. Akorede in Ejigbo, Lagos.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that this followed the arrest of a 28-year-old man, Promise Onuegbu, in Imo State with the deceased’s vehicle.
The suspect, Onuegbu, arrested for the murder of an accountant and his lover inside his Ejigbo Lagos residence, has alleged it was the man’s wife that masterminded the crime.
The late Balogun and his lover, Muyibat, were found dead on June 20, 2019, at his residence, 16, Taiwo Oke Street, Victory Estate, Ejigbo area of Lagos.
They were discovered after the man’s wife, Akorede, said to be resident in Iba Housing Estate, reported to the Police.
In the course of investigating the case, detectives trailed the deceased man’s vehicle to Imo State where one Promise Oguegbu was arrested.
It was gathered that Oguegbu allegedly took Balogun’s ATM card, which he was said to have used in making withdrawals from the deceased’s account.
While parading him at the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (SCIID), the Police said he killed the victims in a robbery attempt, an allegation Oguegbu refuted.
According to the suspect, it was the man’s wife and another man who killed them, claiming he was only given the car by the woman to shut up.
He said, “I did not kill anybody. The landlord’s wife poisoned her husband and the husband’s girlfriend. I was the only one who saw her doing it. She begged me that I should not expose her so that is how I put myself into this trouble”.
“It happened on June 18, 2019. I came from abroad and I was trying to go back to South Korea but they could not grant me visa. I was a tenant in their house.
The woman called me that I should come inside to assist her because I was the only one in the house. I went inside her house and saw her with one tall guy. While the guy tied the man, she told me to tie the lady. I had to comply so that they will not kill me.”
“I later went outside but as I was hearing noise, I saw when the woman was pouring something into the man and the woman’s mouths. I did not kill this man. They arrested the wife but I do not know where she is now. I am not in a relationship with her.”
“She was the one who gave me the car. She said that the car was her own and she gave it to me while begging me not to report her to the Police. She told someone to drive the car out of the compound and it was that person that drove me with the car to my village.”
“It was the woman, Akorede, that sent me to do ATM withdrawals for her and I gave her the money. I am not a murderer. I didn’t kill anyone. It is my silence that has landed me in this mess,” he claimed.
The late Balogun was married with two wives but reportedly dumped them for Muyibat.
