dump the corpse.
P.m News gathered that the lady died while fighting with

Abike, it was learnt, visited Jerry in his house and a
disagreement ensued during which the lady was reportedly beaten severely.
She was said to have phoned her mother to tell her that she
was being beaten by the suspect.
The mother of the deceased, Mrs. Tawa Ahmed told P.m News at
the police station that her daughter called her at about 10 p.m. yesterday to
inform her that Jerry was beating her over something which she did not

of the girl on a street.
The distraught mother revealed that the suspect usually beat
her daughter, adding that she warned her to stop seeing the suspect but she
disobeyed her.
“This is not the first time the suspect will beat my
daughter. Jerry was fond of beating my daughter at the slightest excuse and I
warned her to stop going to him but she refused. See what has happened now. He
beat my daughter to death and was trying to throw the corpse away when the
police caught him,” Mrs. Ahmed narrated to P.m News.
