So sad! Suspected assailants have
killed a woman, identified as Itohan Enagbare,28, and her four-year-old daughter,
Iwinosa, in Benin, the Edo State capital. It was learnt that the incident
occurred at the residence of the deceased on Osaze Street, off Dumez Road, at
about 1pm on Wednesday.
Sources said the four-year-old
girl’s loud cry when her mother was attacked also caused the killers to hack
her to death before they fled the scene.
The state Police Public Relations
Officer, Abiodun Osifo, confirmed the incident, adding that the landlady of the
victims had been arrested in connection with their death.
“There is one arrest so far; that is
the landlady of the late woman. Information got to the police that they had
been having issues. And since then, the woman (landlady) had been threatening
the late woman.
“The landlady’s son, who is also a
suspect, is on the run. The landlady is in police custody and undergoing
interrogation.” So sad.
