Tribune reports that the retired soldier had set up the brothel shortly after he left the Nigerian Army in Odo Owa community, Ijero Local Government Area of the state.

It was gathered that on the day Samuel was killed, he had just collected his pension which ran into a huge amount of money and when he got to the brothel, the resident prostitutes who had heard about the money from one of their colleagues who was the victim's lover, seized him, tied him up, beat him with different weapons before setting him on fire.

Confirming the incident, the State Police Public Relations Officer, Alberto Adeyemi, said the deceased was attacked by the harlots who rented some rooms from him.

“The man just collected his pension and thrifts, which the prostitutes became aware of. They dispossessed him of the money and tied him to a bed in the house.
