Residents of Oko-Filling, a neighborhood in Araromi, Ijoko, Sango Ota, rescued a man who had been bound, gagged, and left for dead by his wife and children following a dispute over his retirement benefits.
The incident occurred in the early hours of Thursday, March 13, at the family’s residence.
According to The Nation, the man had received his retirement payout and used part of it to open two shops for his wife in Abule, in addition to giving her N3 million. He also purchased a N12 million car for himself, despite the family already owning a home in the area.
However, his wife and four sons—all university graduates—were displeased that he did not hand over the entire sum for them to manage. They pressured him for more money.
Shortly after buying the car, he sold it, raising suspicions among neighbors. A local landlord told The Nation that the man was later found in his home, tied up with his mouth, hands, and feet bound.
“He was tied like an animal to be sl@ughtered. They (his wife and kids) got some Aboki men, about six of them to tie him up. It was the strange noise from their packing that alerted residents who gathered in front of the house to know what was happening.
“Landlords in the area who could not endure the noise at that hour, decided to go out and find out what was wrong. When they got to his compound, they saw a Korope (small bus) outside packing properties.
“His wife and sons were the ones packing and so, the residents asked after the man. When the response given was not satisfactory, they forced themselves inside the house and saw the man completely bound with the Aboki people still inside the house, as though they were waiting to k!ll him.
“The man was untied and rushed to the hospital. He’s still at the hospital receiving treatment. The suspects were all taken to the police station. One of the Aboki men confessed it was the man’s wife that contracted them to tie him up. They were all taken to the police station.”
