A 17-year-old boy, Philip Emmanuel, has confessed to how he and his accomplice, Precious, killed their employer, Mrs. Adene Iyabode Deborah.
According to The Nation, it was reported that Mrs. Adene, who was a well-known caterer, was found dead in her apartment after being missing for several days. She had been stabbed multiple times, and her head was severed.
Philip, who was paraded at the Ondo Police headquarters, said he had worked for the victim for five months before the incident. He revealed that it was Precious, who had been employed as a driver just two months prior, who persuaded him to commit the crime.
According to Philip, Precious overheard that N150,000 had been deposited into their madam’s account and suggested they kill her to steal the money.
According to him: “I am here because I killed my madam. Last month, I have worked with her for five months. I was her cook. She just employed a driver who have only worked for two weeks.
One day the driver came to me and said N150,000 just entered madam account. He told me we should killed my madam and collect the money. I said I have not killed someone before.”
