A delivery man with an online marketing
store, Jumia, Mr. Chukwuma Eleje, has
been killed in a house on Ada George Road,
Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
The victim was said to be delivering two
mobile phones to some customers, who had
ordered for them through the Internet on
Saturday, when he was attacked and killed.
The assailants were reported to have
dumped his remains in a septic tank in a
desperate attempt to cover up the crime.
However, operatives of the Special Anti-
Robbery Squad were said to have been
alerted by residents.
The officials were reported to have
swooped in on the suspects identified as
Naabe and Mbatumukeke. Naabe, who
claimed to be on a visit, said he saw
Mbatumukeke pushing the deceased into
the septic tank.
He said, “On my way to this place, I saw him
(Mbatumukeke); he was packaging something like
a black waste bin. He was saying I should just go
inside and chill out. He said he would soon join me
in the room.
“I overheard some neighbours asking him what he
was doing close to the septic tank and he gave
them an excuse. I went inside and saw bloodstains
in the bathroom.
“When I queried him, he brought out a gun and
pointed it at me, saying if I uttered a word about
what I saw, he would kill all my family members.”
The second suspect, Mbatumukeke, claimed
that Naabe killed the victim, adding that he
hit the courier man with an iron on the
head.
“He hit him with iron on the head and blood was
gushing out. I was afraid; I was vibrating. I didn’t
know what to do. God is my witness,” he added.
When a Punch correspondent visited the
scene on Tuesday, he observed that the
house was deserted.
It was gathered that most of the tenants in
the building began to leave the house after
policemen recovered the corpse.

prime suspects below:
