A 32-year-old suspected murderer, Stephen Onona has been arrested by the Akwa Ibom State Police Command for killing his close friend, Daniel Solomon.

Onona is from Njikoka Local Government Area of Anambra State.
He graduated from Federal Polytechnic, Oko, Anambra State.
According to the State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Gabriel Achong, the suspect invited Solomon who worked for him as a professional barber to his house over a misunderstanding bothering on money less than N1m.
Achong explained that as soon as they had discussed the issue, Solomon went to bed while Onona took up a machete and cut off Solomon’s head before cutting other parts of the body in pieces.
The CP said: “After cutting off Solomon’s head, he removed his two arms and laps, put them into his bag and threw them somewhere. He put the remaining parts of the body in ‘Ghana Must Go’ and dumped them in the gutter. He put Solomon’s head in the dustbin and dumped it in the bush.
“When I got the news on Tuesday morning that somebody was killed and thrown into a gutter, I swung into action. I did everything possible to get him arrested. I had to locate the owner of the house where the murderer lived.
“We got the landlord and asked whom he gave the house to; and he disclosed the guy’s identity to us. And with the help of tracking device, we called the gentleman (Onona), and he told us that he was in Onitsha.
“We tracked his number and in the evening on Tuesday, he was arrested in a street here in Uyo. He led the police to where he dumped all the body parts of Solomon. He has some friends and we used these friends number to get to him.”
Onona admitted to committing the crime, saying he was provoked because Solomon could not tell him how he had spent the N750,000  he gave him to set up the barbing business.
He said: “I am 32 years old and working here with Africana First Publisher. I am on the police net because of my boy, Bassey Solomon. He took my money, N750, 000 which I obtained from a bank for him to set up barbing business.”
“The barbing saloon was at 55, Itu Road. I am angry with him to the extent of carrying machete and killing him.”
