Since the deceased, who left her home on Sunday, January 17, 2021, refused to come home, with her partner as the main suspect, the police began an investigation into the matter.

In Oghara, Delta State, a commercial motorcyclist known as Mr. Happyman was detained for the murder of his mother, Orie Evusi, who was reported missing four days earlier.

According to OgharaVoice, a local state tabloid, Evusi was allegedly killed by Happyman for texting another man.

Since the deceased, who left her home on Sunday, January 17, 2021, refused to come home, with her partner as the main suspect, the police began an investigation into the matter.

A few days later, Happyman was confirmed to have been found threatening to end his own life by drinking a toxic liquid. His neighbors, who saw him trying to kill himself, hurried him to the hospital.

After he regained consciousness during his questioning, Happyman said he killed his girlfriend because she was messaging some guy on her cell.

The motorcyclist also carried police officers to Unoghovo bush, where his dead body was deposited.

Recently, there have been several reported cases of passion crime around the country.

Ashi, who left without arguing, reportedly returned with a few men and a barrel of petrol, which had been used to fire the house, to the flat.

The event with the fire left Atoza severely burned.
