Tragedy struck in Warri, Delta State, last weekend, when a 300-level student of the Delta State University, Abraka, was hacked to death allegedly by a suspected cultist over a N5,000 internet modem.

The victim, Solomon Onyeoghani, was a student in the Department of Business Education, while his alleged killer, 29-year-old Chukwu Kelubia, is of the Federal Polytechnic, Auchi, Edo State.

It was gathered that the incident occurred barely hours after Onyeoghani returned from school. He was said to be on his way to visit his mother, a petty trader, when he was attacked by Kelubia.

Sources at Osamede Street, Okumagba Layout, where the incident occurred, told Nation Evening Express that the suspected cultist had earlier accused his victim of stealing his GSM internet modem, an allegation the deceased reportedly denied.

However, unknown to him, Kelubia was lurking at No13 Osamede Street on the fateful day. He was reportedly armed with jagged-edged broken bottle.

“He chased Solomon and stabbed him severally on the neck. As the boy was running, he kept on stabbing him. Desperate for help, Solomon ran towards a private hospital close by, but he fell down and died at the entrance.” Confirming the report, father of the deceased, Mr. Augustine Onyoghani, said his son’s alleged killer, who is a feared leader of one of the notorious cult groups in the area, had earlier warned him “that he would kill my son over the missing internet modem.”

­“Not up to one hour that the boy (Kelubia) left, someone came to tell me that Solo was dead. I didn’t know that the boy meant to kill my son. They did not fight. The boy rushed out from nowhere and started stabbing him with broken bottle. He stabbed my son severally on the neck.”

Although the Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Charles Muka, could not be reached for comment, a senior officer at the B Division confirmed the incident, disclosing that the father of the suspect had relocated to the station for fear of attack by angry mob.

ortopazz: wish they were were pictures to really paint the story more

SimonAndal: This is for those wondering if Buccaneers is "legalize" or if Pyrates is a cult or not. Morale: all of them are evil. Nigerians kill everything they touch. The Fraternity that was meant to be a harmless, fun gathering of like-minded students have been turned into something else in Nigeria. Watch the tv series Greek, and see how a Fraternity should, and is meant to be.

ebamma: as a university student there are two things involved,its either you are a normal student or a cultist,if you are a normal student you are safe,but if you are a cultist there are two things involved,its either you are killed by a rival cult group or arrested by the police,if you are arrested by the police you are safe but if you are killed by a rival cult group there are two things involved,its either you go to heaven or you go to hell,if you go to heaven you are safe but if you go to hell there is only one thing involved,eternal fire will burn you.
