The truth behind the murder of four students of the University of
Port Harcourt is beginning to manifest, as the Police paraded 13
suspects yesterday. Out of the 13 suspects, three of them were allowed
to speak with journalists with their own versions of the story. The
three of them had confessed that some policemen were actually seen at
the scene of the incident before the boys were brutally murdered.
Mr David Ugbaje, a suspect had disclosed that he saw 2 policemen when
the boys were being tortured, asserting that one of them actually
pleaded with the community to release the boys. He indicted the second
policeman whom he said joined the mob to beat up the boys.
He said that the students were accused of robbery , but before they
were lynched, they were taken to a house around Coca-Cola street to find
out whether they actually went to see a debtor as they claimed or not.
Mr David said that it became obvious that they wanted to kill the boys
when they got to the house and bright was not there. He said that he
joined the tenants to push the mob out of the compound when they were
almost killing them there.
Ugbaje who works as a cobbler said that Bright was not at home as at the time they went to his house.
When asked if he took part in the beating, he confessed hitting the students twice.
Ikechuckwu Louis Amadi and Lawal Segun also confirmed the presence of some police officers while the boys were being beaten.
Lawal who is also a taxi driver had denied taking part in the mob
action. He said he was on his kneels begging the mob to let the boys go,
but they wouldn’t listen.
Amadi, on the other hand said that four policemen were on ground when
the incident happened, affirming that the mob refused to release the
boys to the police for further investigation .
Alhaji Hassan Welewa, 59; Lucky Orji, 43 ; Cynthia Chinwo (F), 24;
Ekpe Daniel, 30; George Nwadei, 30; Gabriel Oche 33; Ozioma Abajuo, 23;
