A Lagos State High
Court in Igbosere has sentenced to death Okwumo Nwabufo and Olisaeloka
Ezike who were charged with the murder of a postgraduate student of
Nasarawa State University, Cynthia Osokogu.
The deceased was murdered by the convicts on July 22, 2012 at Cosmilla
Hotel, Lake View Estate, Festac Town, Lagos.
In a judgment on Thursday, Justice Olabisi Akinlade found Nwabufo and
Ezike guilty as charged by the state.
The judge held that the circumstantial evidence brought by the state in
proof of the six counts of conspiracy, murder and stealing against the
accused persons were cogent, complete, unequivocal and compelling.
