A 38-year-old married hunter, Joseph Ajegba, has narrated the event that led to his bossom friend’s demise in lkun-Akoko, in Akoko South West council area of Ondo state.
The suspect was paraded at the state police headquarters, Akure, on Wednesday, September 4.
He said he committed the crime after he caught the deceased ‘working out’ with his girlfriend in the house he rented for her.
He said that he had dropped a bush meat for his girlfriend earlier in the day and went out in the night for another round of game but was surprised by what he saw when he got to the house.
According to him, “I went out hunting after I have taken some bottles of beer, but I ran out of cartridges. I wanted to return to the house of my girlfriend to sleep there.
When I got there, I saw the door locked. I now went to the window and I opened it and saw a co-hunter ‘working out’ with my girlfriend. That was why I used the gun in my hand.”
