Military officer and accomplice arrested for allegedly killing their benefactor and dumping him in a bush in Akwa Ibom

A staff of a shipping agency in Port Harcourt identified as Christopher Enoh is dead.

It was gathered that the incident happened on Sunday, May 23, 2021, when the deceased gave the army officer, Corporal Stephen Iweh, a lift from Onne Junction, Port Harcourt in Rivers State on his way to Akwa Ibom.

Unfortunately, the military officer killed Christopher — a father-of-two, dumped his corpse in a bush at Ikot Abasi in Akwa Ibom and ran away with the vehicle. He was traced hours by the police following a complaint lodged by Christopher Enoh’s family that he had gone missing via the vehicle’s tracking system to a hotel on Monday, May 24, and arrested.

During interrogation, Stephen revealed that the deceased was nice enough to have given him a lift and even bought food for him to eat as they were traveling before he committed the crime. His accomplice was arrested and detained at Ikot Akpan Abia police station to prevent an irate crowd from taking mob action.
