Speaking on why he murdered these people in cold blood, Omorogbe said, “I killed them out of annoyance because my mother-in-law used boys to beat me up.
If I quarrel with my wife, she will send boys to beat me up.
I didn’t know the cutlass will meet the baby. After I killed them, I ran away. Later, I came out and went to tell my father what I did.
I have not seen my wife since I killed her mother and sister.”
Commissioner of Police Edo state, Danmallam Abubakar, said the suspect would be charged to court after investigations are completed.
