He said in part:
"Our path crossed in 2015 as Provisions Sellers at Eke Awka market before we later entered into Fish Farming and till your death we were sharing ideals, funds and way forward to better our lives and dat of our family. My mum has cried, prayed and caused your [assailants] and I believe they will not have rest in dis life and their next life.
"Our only crime was struggling and hustling to build something for ourselves in order to survive this harsh economy and bad government. We dey hustle like uneducated youth even when we have our Bsc and other degrees yet they will not allow us to suffer in peace."
