Dad of man murdered over NaijaBet winnings begs police

28-year old Achuku Vincent Joseph of Sabo Pegi area in Lafia, Nasarawa State, was gruesomely murdered after he allegedly won N7.4 million on the NaijaBet betting platform. .

According to a report by Dailytrust, the father of the deceased, Aruma, revealed that Achuku’s corpse was discovered in the early hours of Saturday, April 15, abandoned by the roadside at Federal University Lafia, with several machete cuts.

Accordingly him: “On Tuesday, around 5am, my son came into my room and told me that thieves were in our house in the night and they entered his room to steal his plasma TV and a NaijaBet ticket slip with which he won N7.4m. .

Later, some of his friends came into the house, shouting that they would not agree because the NaijaBet agent knows about those who stole the winning ticket. Later in the day, my son started screaming, complaining of severe headache. .

After a while, he started behaving abnormally, saying they wanted to kill him. His condition later worsened as he could no longer talk. We took him to the hospital and he was admitted. Moments later, his friends showed up again. .

They revealed that he had been given a charm and that they had warned him not to stay without the charm. A pastor was invited to pray for him after we discovered the charm in his pocket. .

My sister insisted we keep him away from his friends by relocating him from the place since we were not sure where his problem was from. They still used diabolic means to trace him which worsened his condition.” .

He noted that Achuku went out as early as 5am on the day he was killed without the knowledge of anyone and he suspects that he was lured out of the house through some kind of spiritual means, only for the family to find him dead later. .

Aruma said, “I suspect both his friends and the NaijaBet agent for this ungodly act. My appeal to security agents is to investigate and unveil those responsible for the killing.” .

The Nasarawa State Command’s PRO, Idrisu Kennedy, revealed that the command has arrested some people in connection with the killing, adding that the matter is being investigated.

we members of betting association of nigeria ibadan chapter says rip to the dead.

Men hating on each other...... nawaooo

I support, the agent is the number 1 suspect. Police shld drill him, he wld vomit the truth

Nairabet and BetNaija have caused more harm than good to my country Nigeria.
We have more lazy folks and wishful thinkers hoping to become millionaires only through betting.

It's about time the National Assembly invites Akin Alabi.
Afterall Tupac was a defendant because someone committed murder after listening to his songs.
Same with Eminem, he was grilled too
Same with Ricki Lake and Jerry Springer.

Akin Alabi must share some responsibility in whatever vice his betting scheme causes.

Gambling is Nigeria's next big nightmare and not even drug-abuse. FG should devote the same energy used in hunting down Tram, Reph and Codeine-distributors to terrorizing betting outlets.
The media who helped shut down the Nigerian Ponzi scheme market should also lend a hand to eradicating gambling.

May we live to enjoy our breakthrough. This is sad.



I also suspect the Naijabet agents, they would want him to redeem his winning because they might lose in the end.

What can I say, "ife na eme na ala Nigeria.

Nawaoh

His friends and the NaijaBet shop owner should be questioned

Btw how many odds and which match did he stake?

Obviously his friends

To bad

g

K

Na those him so called friends dem suppose catch

Na so Dem no just allow the guy enjoy his 7.4m.

What a wicked world.

God have mercy... vanity upon vanity...#whereisthelove#

The Government should ban betnaija. The country is losing Billions of naira without getting anything in return.
This scam is worse than MMM
Most eu contries banned betting without a moment thought, Nigeria should do the same. It just don't have any benefits to the country, whether in long run or otherwise.
If this is banned even exchange rate will drastically improve
How can betting platform be collecting from the society and giving nothing in return
Its quite unfortunate.


Some miserable low-lives low-ballers that cannot work hard to earn a living will not like this.
You don't destroy lives to make wealth, you impact lives to make wealth!
Let the FIRS or whatever taxing agency tax these betting platforms, increase their taxes by huge values that will make them go into natural extinction

Can someone explain this to me? Because I am not understanding this story even after reading it twice.

Chei!!
Somebody cannot even win bet9ja in peace again..
R.i.p my betting brother

y is dis country so bad?i shed tears while readind dis story,God has decided 2 lift d poor boy 2ru football bet but human beigns have deprived him of his happiness,dis is y i dnt have even 1 friend,it will not b well wth who ever dat is responsible 4 dis

That's why it's always wise to keep everything descrete when it comes to this betnaija stuff.
Play your game and keep your cool, you can't trust nobody.
Back in school a course mate won 2 million, the cult boys around his hostel that were of it hunted him until he left the school entirely. Let's play safe

#7.4 MILLION NAIRA

Those were not his Friends. Those were Demons

At least these lazy Nigerian youths who play bet9ja or nairabet are better than you.
Sometimes they lose,sometimes they win
Sometimes on a weekend when there is no bread,they stake like #200 nd get like #10,000
They enjoy d weekend spending d 10k with friends nd the remaining change they use to subscribe.
But u keep buying data,following every topic on nairaland.You get nothing in return
You only end up as a nairaland celebrity...thats where it ends NAIRALAND CELEBRITY.
These lazy youths keep enjoying themselves on a low key and u keep fighting for popularity.

This is why I do my shiit online.
Oya come and kidnap the money in my bank account.

RIP to the dead...but the father looks like Ambode....are they family?

This is the reason I told my friend that the day I would win millions in bet9ja I won't tell them the amount...just tell them say I win small thing make we go chop fish,,

This pix says it all, R.I.P.
