Speaking to Daily Trust journalist, Kingsley Nwankor said the deceased had been a thorn in their flesh for giving them too much work to do.

“When we entered late Onyekwele’s office, my colleague, Joseph, asked him questions about our job. At that point the deceased flared up and wanted to fight Joseph. I held the deceased by the hand while Joseph hit him severally with a wooden object,” he stated.
