For Murder
A young man, Charles Bankole Orisanya, who hails from Akoko
in Ondo State, and works with Halliburton in Rivers State has
been gruesomely murdered by a 26 year old lover, Loretta
Odikagbo, he met on social network Badoo.
He was murdered on the 19th of September but she was
arrested three months after, December 9, 2014 after a
painstaking investigation by the Homicide Section of the
Rivers State Police Command.
Senior police officers who spoke to Tribune Newspaper said,
Miss Odikagbo and two accomplices tapered late Orisanya’s
mouth, hands and legs before covering his head with a
polythene bag. After which she sat on the deceased’s head
while one of the accomplices, Ime Francis Moses Jnr held his
neck until he became lifeless.
Miss Odikagbo, a student of Rivers State Polytechnic, Bori,
reportedly met Orisanya on Badoo network and they started
dating online. They connected physically and the
relationship blossomed over the next months.
However, on September 19, 2014, when the lover invited the
lady to his house, she hired two men to go with her and hid
them under the staircase of the lover’s residence.
“In order not to arouse any suspicion, Loretta released
herself totally to her lover and engaged in a passionate love
making session with him. After the man climaxed, he rolled
off and got ready for sleep. The lady was said to have
quietly opened the door to let the two accomplices in.
Pointing a gun-like object at Bankole, Loretta and the boys
used a rope and masking tape to tie his hands and legs.
Satisfied that she had dealt with her lover, Loretta left for an
Automated Teller Machine to collect all the cash in Bankole’s
account. Of course, she had earlier collected the secret pin
from him under duress. Not done, the lady was said to have
returned and had gone to her lover’s kitchen to pick a
polythene bag to cover his head after taping his mouth, and sat
on his head. One of the accomplices, Moses, held the man’s
neck until he gave up the ghost. The two men also took their
victim’s shirts, shoes and other personal items while Loretta
went for his LG phone and laptop.” The police officers
revealed.
Narrating how she carried out the act, Loretta said”
“I met Bankole (Orisanya) through a social network called
Badoo in January 2014 and we got intimate online since he
was at the rig offshore when we met. He was there for two
months and we became internet lovers. We were chatting
and exchanging pictures. When he came back, he invited me
over and we started dating.
“The basis of it all was money. When I met him, it was all
promises upon promises. Along the line, the sex was going
on and the money was not coming. He would give me
N10,000, N15,000 but that was not what I expected from
him. Also when we first met, to me, he was a single man but
along the line, I discovered he was married.
“We talked about it but he didn’t want the affair to end. He
said that it would not be a problem and he could handle it.
But I only continued with him because I was waiting for the
promises to be fulfilled. I was not interested in marriage to
him. We had a bit of misunderstanding concerning money
and our relationship. I asked my friend who is also my in-
law to help me so that I could get the money forcefully from
Bankole.
“Along the line, I could not control my anger so I asked my
in-law to come help harass him to get what I could get from
him and move on with my life.
“On a particular night, he called me and I went to his place
with my in-law and one other guy. I felt it was an
opportunity to deal with him. We went to his residence and I
managed to sneak the two men into the compound. I hid
them under the stairs. I went in to Bankole and we made
love. After we were done, I left him in the bedroom and went
to the kitchen as if I wanted to drink water, and let the guys
in. I made it look like both of us were being robbed. We met
Bankole in the sitting room; probably trying to know what
kept me away for long.
“There was no light. I didn’t see any gun. My in-law was
holding a tape while the other guy held a torch and
something that looked like a gun. Bankole and I went on our
knees and the guys were threatening us, asking for money.
My lover told them that he had money in his account so he
gave them his ATM card pin number.
“My-in law tied his hands with the tape and second guy
acted like I had to be the one to follow him to the ATM. It
was raining heavily that night. It was almost midnight. We
left for the ATM and I withdrew a little over N120,000 and
paid the guy off. I gave him about N30,000 or thereabouts.
My in-law came to meet me at the ATM and I also gave him
almost N50,000.
“I took Bankole’s LG phone while his laptop was brought to
me the following day by my in-law. I can’t remember what
the other guy took from Bankole’s house. I didn’t know
anything about the polythene that was used to cover his
head.”
“I didn’t have the intention of dating him anymore; I just
wanted to move on. I only knew about Bankole’s death
when I was arrested.”
The Police Public Relations Officer in Rivers State, DSP
Ahmad Muhammad, confirmed the story, saying that the
case was still under investigation at the Department of
Criminal Investigation.
