The police in Edo State said a person named Addulrafiu Afegbua, also known as Uroy, was killed by some bad people with guns in a place called Awoyemi at Okpella, which is in Etsako East area.
The police, through their spokesperson SP Moses Yamu, talked about this sad event to reporters in a town called Benin City.
Yamu mentioned that they are working hard to catch those who did this bad thing.
It seems like the people who killed him might have been hired to do this terrible act.
A person who knows the family but didn’t want to reveal their name told us that Uroy was at home with his wife one night when someone called him on the phone to come to a place.
This friend said Uroy didn’t think anything bad would happen, so he quickly left his home to meet the caller.
The friend also said that his wife tried very hard to stop him from going out, but he still went because he wanted to see the caller.
When Uroy got to the place, the bad people hurt him badly on his chest and neck, which sadly caused him to die.
The wife, after waiting a long time without hearing from Uroy, kept trying to call him, but he didn’t answer his phone.
This made her and other family members, as well as friends, form a group in the morning to search for him.
Sadly, they found him no longer alive in a forest area, close to where they found his motorbike left behind.
