“On second day Sile and his friend came to my house when I was smoking Indian hemp at the back of our house and they said we should go and look for girl in which I follow them.

“On our way going we saw a girl with school bag on her back we took her to bush where Sile and his friend kill the girl while they asked me to be watching if anybody is coming.

“I don’t know what they took from the girl body that day but on second day I was told that they only cut her left breast and left hand.

“The two guys said that the person that sent them is a rich man and has promised them N10million and they promise to give me N3millon out of the money for the first operation while I was promised N5,000 for second operations but non of the money was given to me before I was arrested”.
