That was when I sta*^bbed and ra^ped her.
“She was not dead when I ra^ped her, I picked up her phone and held it for one month. After that I sold it to Ephraim Emmanuel, I did not tell him where I got the phone from, just that I told him that the phone is mine. The phone is Redmi. I started working in the filling station in August, 2022 and I was being paid #28000”, He narrated.
Emmanuel who bought the phone added,
” I bought the phone because I know him as my Choirmaster. He did not tell me he was not the owner of the phone. The Police tracked the phone to me and arrested me so I told them who sold the phone to me”, He confessed.
