A 35-year old man, Umaru Jibrin has stabbed the Chief Imam of Enagi town, in Edati Local Government area of Niger State to death for allegedly having a sexual relationship with his wife, Aisha Umar.
Jibrin claims that he caught the 48-year old Islamic cleric, Alhaji Attahiru Alhassan, in the act and stabbed him in the neck when he called him for a peace talk.
He was however arrested by the Police in the state.
Narrating what happened to newsmen at the Police Headquarters in Minna, Jibrin said, “When I saw him on top of my wife, I said haba Imam why must you do this to me? Aisha my wife what are you looking for?”
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has invited the ex-Imo State Governor and the lawmaker representing Imo West Senatorial District, Rochas Okorocha.
This is according to his media aide, Sam Onwuemeodo, who stated this in a press statement issued on Tuesday.
The anti-graft agency had quizzed the lawmaker weeks after operatives of the Imo State Police Command arrested him in February for allegedly unsealing Spring Palm Estate linked to his wife, Nkechi.
The Imo State Government sealed the estate and other properties it claimed to have been diverted by Okorocha and his family members but the Senator has since said the properties were legitimately his own and that of his family.
