After several months of maintaining silence following the tragic loss of his sister Augusta, her brother has finally broken his silence.
Known for his presence on the microblogging platform X, he had been notably quiet since her brutal murder by her boyfriend, Killaboi.
The reason for his recent statement was the circulating rumours regarding Killaboi’s whereabouts and concerns.
In his tweet, Augusta‘s brother revealed that he had spent the past week in Freetown, Sierra Leone, coordinating with local law enforcement agencies to devise a strategy for capturing Killaboi. They had been tracking him for some time, knowing his routines and movements, and their persistence led to his eventual apprehension at a nightclub.
The tweet included his statement: “I’ve spent the last week in Freetown, Sierra Leone. We were in contact with the Law Enforcement Agencies in Sierra Leone to set up ways to apprehend Ben.
We knew where he slept, we knew where he ate, we trailed him until they were able apprehend him last night. I’ve looked for him everywhere, from Accra, to Abidjan, and luck brought him to my path in Freetown.
Through the efforts of the Sierra Leonean authorities, we’ve finally been able to apprehend him. We hope the Nigerian Police force work fast to extradite him to face his crimes.”
Augusta’s brother expressed his struggles in trying to do the right thing, acknowledging that he had done his part and was now entrusting the rest to the appropriate authorities.
