Shocking Crime: Teen Admits Killing Boss Over N150,000

A 17-year-old boy, Philip Emmanuel, has confessed to conniving with his accomplice, Precious, to kill their boss, Mrs. Adene Iyabode Deborah.

The deceased, a caterer, who was stabbed severally and her head severed, was said to have been found dead inside her apartment after not being seen for some days.

Paraded at the Ondo Police headquarters, the suspect said he had worked with the victim for five months before the incident, stressing that it was Precious, who was employed as a driver for only two months that lured him to commit the crime.

According to the teenage suspect, Precious overheard that N150,000 was paid into their madam’s account and approached him that they should kill her and collect the money.

“I am here because I killed my madam. Last month, I worked with her for five months. I was her cook. She just employed a driver who has only worked for two weeks.

“One day the driver came to me and said N150,000 just entered my madam account. He told me we should kill my madam and collect the money. I said I had not killed someone before.

“On Saturday, madam said I should come and help her wash clothes because she was very tired. The driver came around and madam was surprised but the driver explained that he wanted to help her.

“That day, the driver brought a drink and gave it to me. I drank it. He brought out a cutlass and started threatening me that he would also kill me.

“We went into the house and he pushed me inside. I said I should use a cutlass to hit the woman. I did it. But I started crying.

“After we killed the woman, the driver went to check the account and found only N60,000. He gave me N30,000. I went to Idanre.”

Ondo Police Commissioner, Oladipo Abayomi, who described Philip as a trusted employee of the deceased, urged residents to be cautious when discussing sensitive financial information, especially around employees or individuals who might misuse such knowledge.
