Man arrested after he and his wife hired assassins to kill neighbour

Idimu Police Division in Lagos has arrested one Rasaq Babalola while his wife identified as Mama Raheem is on the run after they allegedly conspired and paid assassins to eliminate his neighbour, Emeka Anozie, at Agbo Komolafe Street, Idimu Lagos, over Covid-19 palliative during the current lockdown.

Trouble was said to have started after the victim, Emeka Anozie, engaged the services of a chef to cook food in order to share to people in their neighbourhood as palliative during the current lockdown. The couple was said to be unhappy over the benevolence to the people and attempted to stop Anozie but he ignored them. He went on, cooked the food and shared to the people around.

According to Anozie, later after the incident, Rasaq’s children started throwing stones at his window and when he tried to caution them through their mother, the woman flared up and threatened to deal with him.

Anozie said the next day, some armed men, numbering about 14, invaded his apartment, beat him to stupor, collected his phones, and attempted to take him away in their waiting Toyota car but people in their neighbourhood frustrated them and they escaped.

Mr. Anozie then rushed to the Police in the pool of blood to report the incident and was referred to the hospital for treatment. The following day, while still in the hospital, armed men in Military uniforms invaded his apartment looking for him in order to eliminate him.

However, they met his absence and attacked his two younger brothers, destroyed his two televisions, other properties inside, looted his safe containing huge sums of money and escaped. He said that the operation was led by both Rasaq and his wife who is now at large.

When Rasaq was contacted, he admitted that he hired assassins including the armed soldiers to attack Mr. Anozie and blamed everything on his wife and in-laws, who he said arranged the whole thing.

It was gathered that it was not the first time such had been done to the tenants, who had lived in the house in the past, before the current incident happened.
