The Nigeria Police Force has confirmed the arrest of two individuals believed to be responsible for the murder of a Chinese national, Chen Wang, earlier this year.
The suspects were apprehended on July 14, 2025, in Jos, Plateau State, after months of extensive surveillance and coordinated intelligence-gathering efforts.
Chen Wang, an employee of WH Great Resource Ltd. located in Ogere, Ogun State, was found dead in his office on January 12, 2025. Officers from the Ogun State Police Command responded to a distress call and discovered his body bearing multiple stab wounds to the chest.
In a statement, the Police said the incident triggered an intensive investigation led by the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) in Eleweran, Ogun State, with critical support from the Force’s Technical Intelligence Unit (TIU), under the strategic directive of the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun.
The investigation employed a blend of digital forensics, biometric analysis, and human intelligence, ultimately leading to the arrest of the suspects: 25-year-old Yunusa Abdullahi from Borno State and 20-year-old Peace Keno Danlami from Taraba State. Both individuals were reportedly employed as factory workers at WH Great Resource Ltd.
The Police have stated that further investigations are ongoing.
