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.
The Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Benjamin Kalu, on Saturday claimed that President Bola Tinubu is the messiah that the Southeast have been waiting for since the end of the Biafra civil war.
Kalu made the remark while noting that the South-East will ensure that Tinubu is reelected in 2027.
The Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives spoke during the All Progressives Congress, APC, women empowerment rally in Enugu State.
He said Tinubu loves people of the South-East, claiming that when he was governor, nobody arrested or confiscated the properties of Igbos in Lagos State.
Kalu recalled how Tinubu appointed Ben Akabueze into his cabinet while he was governor of Lagos State.
He said: "For now our mandate is to support the man that has been supporting us, this man has not hidden his love for Ndi-Igbo, when he was the governor of Lagos State, no Igbo property was taken, no Igbo who was a businessman was arrested.
"Then he was the only man who brought an Igbo man into his cabinet, Ben Akabueze, it has never happened before.
"I need to remind you that after the civil war we waited for 60 years for the promise that was made to the people of Igboland that was not kept. The three Rs they taught us in government, Reconciliation, Reconstruction, and Reintegration; government after government ignored us. Administrations after administrations ignored the Igbos and we were waiting when will the messiah come to save the Igbos.
"Then came a man who loved the Igbos from his heart, the Southeast Development Commission has been going to the parliament from year to year, assembly to assembly and they refused to sign it, but when Tinubu came, the Southeast Development Commission became a commission.
"He gave us bridge, roads, and scholarship, why won't we reelect him again, he will return again."
