A husband and wife have landed in serious trouble after they were found with a phone belonging to a woman who was kidnapped and murdered in Imo state.

The husband found with the mobile phone of 45-year-old Mrs. Amaka Okere, who was kidnapped and murdered in Mbieri, Mbaitoli Local Government Area of Imo State, said the phone was given to him by his wife.

According to Vanguard, the duo identified as Emeka Adibe his wife, Monica were paraded by the Imo State Police Command in Owerri, on Tuesday 26th June 2017. The state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Chris Ezike, said:

“You will recall that on March 1, Mrs Amaka Okere, aged 45, of Mbieri in Mbaitoli Local Government Area of Imo State, was kidnapped and murdered.

“Investigations are in progress. Emeka Adibe and Monica Adibe were arrested on June 15 in Rivers State and the victim’s telephone handset recovered from them.” While confessing, Mrs Adibe said it was her twin sister’s husband who gave her the phone.

Monica said:

“I am a native of Arochukwu in Abia State; I am married with two kids. I went for a child dedication in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State. “While preparing to return home, my sister’s husband gave me a phone. I did not know it was not his. When I returned home, my husband saw the phone, took it and started using it; the Police arrested him.

“I came to ask why he was arrested and the Police also arrested me.”

Her husband Mr. Emeka Adibe, said:

“I swear, I don’t know anything about the phone. It is my wife that brought it and the police saw it and arrested me. This phone has put me in trouble.”

Editor's Note:

Clearly, this couple maybe innocent of any crime and instead Nigeria Police will investigate and get to the root of the crime, they are parading the suspects already. This is just sending a message to the culprit to run away. These couple should have been kept secret until investigation is over.

What kind of policing is this abeg?

This is the reason why most federal judges hate police with passion. They will never do their work diligently, instead they will rush and parade suspects unnecessarily. And a good lawyer will just appear in court and bust their cases wide upon. That is why they loose a lot of case. Same thing with EFCC.

One of the reasons I preferred brand new phone... one of my Facebook female friend fall in similar problem, she is a student of Unizik she bought a phone at black market without knowing the source of the phone and unaware the phone she bought is a stollen phone and the owner was robed and killed in the process, the culprits brought the phone all the way from PH and sold it in onitsha, the girl bought the phone from the guy they sold it to, immediately she inserted her simcard the phone send her number to real owner phone number, from their they add the girl on WhatsApp and befriended her, when all this was going on she is never aware of all the conspiracy, the person she was chatting with invited her to pH, even send 50k to her acc as Tp... and even promise to give her more when she visit pH, the girl traveled all the way from awka to Ph to meet his new lover, immediately she dropped from the taxi that brought her to their meeting place, police jumped from nowhere and handcuffed her and took her to the station, she confessed to them how she got the phone by then they told her the phone was stole on gun point and the owner was killed and 2,000,000 stole from him.. the girl took them to where she bought the phone and the guy that bought the phone from the criminal was also arrested and all the fairly used laptops and phones in his shop was confiscated ... police knw the truth that both the girl and the guy are innocent but they were involved because the phone was found on them , since the real culprits have not been caught they will be the scapegoat, it took intervention of good lawyer to bail them with 200,000 naira each ... so my dear friends if u don't have money for new brand phones go for the one u can afford because they might be lucky to regain their freedom but you may not be lucky like them... a word is enough for the wise

toolovely:


the lady said her sister's husband gave her the phone. whats stops the police from going after the "sister's husband"?
nigerian police are always in a hurry to go to the press to show they are working. now, the sister's husband would have gone underground on hearing this news.

GeneralOjukwu:


In my earlier comment, I said I preferred a cheap brand new phone than to buy a used one to "impress"

GeneralOjukwu:
.


Thank you....lone voice of reason.

Anyone can feign ignorance after being caught.

It's far better to struggle to buy a new 11k phone than to go and buy a 100k second hand phone with dodgy history.

I see many comments blaming the Police for arresting those with incriminating items on them . Instead of accusing those foolish enough to buy them

Sirpaul:
Oh!...
so far so good
Olowogbogboro revealing them

GavelSlam:



There's a bandwagon parochial malaise that envelopes the nation.


It is clear that the property of a victim of quite a heinous crime was found in the possession of some individuals.

Without prejudice, they are prime suspects until other evidence springs up.

Their alibi though plausible sounds incredible and more than anything, we can conclude that they are at least guilty of receiving stolen goods.

The police has apprehended a link to the possible chain involved.

The public should get off their backs. The force is made up of individuals from the society.

If we are mostly logical in our approach, so would the Nigeria Police Force.

@ bolded, no wonder your name is "GavelSlam"... so you are a lawyer.

You lawyers, your gfs dey try. I am sure you just mesmerize her with grammar and split second she don open portal....


I read through the comments and I wasn't surprised. On a lot of articles on medical "malpractice", you see loads of people who didn't pass Biology in Secondary School abuse Drs for incompetence / negligence. I don't completely absolve the health personnel, but I feel the Medical Council is best qualified to affirm / refute these allegations.

These 2 would learn to be more careful in future not to receive "gifts" that are stolen
