The Sun reports that the family is in deep sorrow not only because their father and breadwinner is dead, but the manner in which he passed away. It was learnt that the deceased, Mr. Okorie who was in his late 60s and father of four allegedly died in the loins of his girlfriend, Nneoma (surname withheld), a Banking and Finance student of the Ebonyi State University (EBSU), Abakaliki.
Okorie, who owned a block-making factory, was allegedly lured to the ‘nest of death’ near the Presco campus of the university by the lover girl who allegedly acted with another boyfriend of hers, whose first name was given as Alex. However, it was revealed that on the day Okorie died, he got a call from Nneoma, asking him to meet her in a five-storey hostel off Goddy Ogbaga Avenue in Abakaliki, the state capital.
On getting there, it was learnt, that the two ‘lovebirds’ began to do those things that lovers do and her school boyfriend, Alex, appeared suddenly on the scene like a ghost. And the man died in the process. Coincidentally, the late Okorie, Nneoma and Alex are said to hail from the same community.
According to SunNews, a police source said:
“What happened was that the man was lured by a girl he has been assisting as a family friend and/or lover to somewhere in Abakaliki. Thinking that all was well, he went to honour the call. Unknown to him, the girl’s boyfriend had already made some arrangements to either threaten or intimidate and extort money from him. But in the process, while in the so-called boyfriend’s room, he died.
