Okowa Orders Police To Set Free His Hit Man
Delta State Governor Ifeanyi Okowa has ordered Delta
State police to immediately set free his hit man and former Oshimili
North local council transition committee chairman, Innocent Esewezie,
who allegedly murdered one Emeka Onianwa during the April 11, 2015
governorship and House of Assembly elections
The gruesome murder of Mr. Onianwa by Governor Okowa's hit man was carried out at the country home of Fred Ajudua at Ibusa, Oshimili North Local Government Area (LGA). Mr. Ajudua and his wife were said to have supervised the gruesome killing.
The late Mr. Onianwa finally died on April 13 at University of Benin Teaching Hospital where he was referred to for treatment from Federal Medical Centre, Asaba.
SaharaReporters reliably learned that a Delta State court on Wednesday last week granted Mrs. Pat Ajudua an injunction restraining the police from arresting her, her husband, and eleven others who are accused in the murder of Mr. Onianwa.
The charges against Mr. Esewezie say he and his cohorts assaulted Mr. Onianwa with cutlasses and other objects. Police officers from the homicide department section in Abuja arrested the suspect on June 31 and arraigned him at the Chief Magistrate Court in Ibusa.
Mr. Esewezie was remanded to prison until July 29, but surprisingly, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa allegedly ordered the police to immediately set him free against the court orders.
Addressing a press conference Wednesday, the wife of the deceased, Mrs. Maria Onianwa, accused Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of ordering Delta State police to set free the murderer of her husband against the wishes of the court.
