…victim buried amid tears
Uduak Akpan, the suspected killer of 26-year-old Akwa Ibom jobseeker, Iniuobong Umoren, has confessed that he had lured and raped six ladies on the pretext of offering them employment.
Akpan made the revelation on Friday when he was paraded alongside his father by the Akwa Ibom State Commissioner of Police, Andrew Amiengheme.
Umoren, a graduate of Philosophy from the University of Uyo, was lured and reportedly killed by Akpan who later buried her in a shallow grave in his father’s compound.
The late Umoren left her house on Thursday, April 29, 2021, for a phoney job interview orchestrated by Akpan before she was allegedly killed by the suspect.
