Houseboy Reportedly Kills Master In Anambra

A young man by the name Chima has been reportedly murdered by their family houseboy in Awka, the capital city of Anambra State.

Multiple sources have presented their accounts of what happened between Chima and their houseboy, which resulted in the young boy attacking Chima and killing him.

According to the information gathered from the killer when he was captured by the local security, he admitted to repeatedly hitting his master Chima with a pestle after he only asked him why he was yet to do his house chores.

However, when he refused to answer, Chima slapped him, which led to a fight, where he later attacked his master.

Other reports said he used both kitchen knife and pestle on his master even while his body was already lying lifeless on the floor in the pool of his blood; hence, he was deliberate with his intention to have him murdered.

The young boy, who should be within the age of 17 or less, and from the Abakaliki area of Ebonyi State, has since been handed over to the Nigerian Police Force, Awka division, for further questioning, while the corpse of the deceased has been deposited at the morgue for autopsy.
