I am sure we are aware of the activities of a serial killer in port-harcourt.
After the second publicly known killing, i knew we had a serial killer on our hands even though a lot of people disagreed with me using strongly worded terms.
First Victim - Precious Maureen Ewuru
Date: July 31st - Aug 1st
Location: Port-Harcourt
According to publicly available reports, Precious made a hotel reservation in D/Line port-harcourt on July 31st. Some unknown eyewitnesses claimed she was joined by a man whom they assumed to be her boyfriend.
According to sources, Precious was an orphan and a single mother of 2 struggling to make ends meet.
Precious was described as a very kind hearted and well intentioned woman.
Any information about her children will be appreciated.
My Observation
1- Precious was well acquainted with the individual for the eye witnesses to assume she was her boyfriend. There may have been some public display of affection.
2- There wasn't any obvious signs of struggle from the publicly available pictures. Also, there was no report of witnesses hearing anything that would make them believe things were going awry.
I believe the victim was drugged. The perpetrator had access to "date rape"drugs which are quite hard to come-by.
3- Going by police report, the perpetrator took some souvenirs and left in a hurry. According to police report, they found "some incriminating" evidence against the perpetrator.
Rest in Peace.
Second Victim - Jennifer Nwokocha
Date: August 15
Location: Port-Harcourt
Date Of Birth: September 28, 1999.
According to publicly available reports, the victim was found dead at the grand venice hotel on Woji road. She had just written her JAMB and aspired to acquire further education.
Several witnesses claimed the victim was offered a certain amount of money for an overnight romp in her hotel room.
Just like the first victim, she was found the next day with her hand bound behind her back and a pillowcase knotted around her neck.
Unfortunately, the police chose to arrest and extort the witnesses instead of questioning and extracting valuable information from them.
Her phone and money was also missing as at the time of discovery.
Rest in Peace Jen.
My Observation
Though i have no crime scene photos to go by, i am noticing a pattern.
1- The killer is obviously a man that preys on women that are at a vulnerable position in their life.
2- Like the first victim (Precious), the second victim (Jennifer) was facing significant hardship and probably had very little to non-existent family support.
3- Souvenirs were taken in both cases and the perp corrected his mistake by leaving nothing behind this time around.
4- First location is quite close to the second location. Perpetrator has a hunting ground and seems to enjoy the publicity.
Third Victim - Unidentified
Date: August 3rd-5th
Location: Owerri
Occured in a hotel in owerri. Unfortunately, as at the September 2019, the Nigerian Police force is yet to publicly announce the identity of the victim.
My Observation
1- Clearly, this was outside the perps hunting ground.
Looking at publicly available pictures of the crime scene, it is quite obvious that the perp went through a great deal of effort to conceal the victim. Something must have rattled him.
2- Per publicly available reports, the perp took all of the victim's belongings including underwear and electronic devices
3- Notice the bruise on her right wrist.
Fourth Victim - Unidentified
Date: August 13-14th
Location: Port-Harcourt
Clearly, the perp has attained the level of comfort that make me fairly certain there would be a string of murders of he is not caught soon enough. The fourth victim had not only hands bound behind her back, she also had her feet bound.
