Sources who preferred anonymity said they don’t know who set the body ablaze and why they killed him. We don’t know what happened, we don’t know how it happened. Till this moment as we are talking to you now, no one has come out to say he was robbed.
“May be the body was brought from outside to this place before it was set ablaze. Because the burning allegedly started about 4pm.
“Whether the deceased is a native of the community, could not be ascertained, as details of the dead teenager were still sketchy as of the time of filing this report.”
“If something like this can happened here, it means nobody is secured here. The leaders of this state and the federal government should do something to stop this kind of killing in Delta community. No one is happy after seeing this corpse.”
