…How my sister’s jilted lover shot me -–Twin sister
By THERESA ONWUGHALU
Lying on her hospital bed and staring into space, Miss Katherine Ijedinma, couldn’t fathom out how she escaped escaped from gunshot fired by the 27-year-old man (name withheld), who stormed her and gunned down everyone on Saturday, February 16.
The man, a native of Imo State, visited the homes of Mr and Mrs Henry Ekene Ozor and that of Mr and Mrs Odia at Igando, Lagos, at night and shot his victims in cold blood over his relationship with Sandra, Katherine’s twin sister which her parents did not approve of. The thought of the incident that led to the brutal killing of at least seven family members gave the young lady of 24, a frightful look.
Narrating her experience, Katherine said: “We were at home when a man jumped the fence into the compound. Everyone was shouting Ole! Ole! (thief, thief). I checked and it was the guy that was dating my twin sister and he was carrying a gun. I was asking him what are you doing here and he asked us to go inside, I was carrying my aunt’s baby. “He said I was the one that asked my twin sister not to marry him.
I told him that I wasn’t the one but before I knew what was happening, he asked me to raise my clothes up that he wanted to shoot at my belly. Fearfully, I lifted my clothes up. He aimed the gun at me and as he was about shooting, I jumped up and I didn’t know what happened again.” Waking up on the hospital bed, Katherine saw that it was her thigh that the bullet hit. According to her, the man carried a big gun, aimed at her stomach and shot.
On who the alleged killer was, Katherine said: “I don’t know how my twin sister met the guy but all I know is that they were friends and the guy lived in Warri, Delta State.” Right now, Katherine, who is grateful to God that the suspect didn’t kill her doesn’t even know that her twin, two elder sisters and children whom the man later shot are in the morgue. Also, the world of Mr Ozor has suddenly collapsed with the gruesome murder of his eight-month pregnant wife, elder sister to Katherine and others.
Since the incident, Ozor said he had not eaten any food except water. Ozor, who described the whole scene as terrible, said he had never seen anything like that before. “They said my wife tried to run away but this man pursued her and shot thrice at her. I have been trying to transfer the corpses, but it is not easy. I don’t know how I manage to do all the work that I do, going from one ward to the other to attend to them and to other places. It is only by God’s strength.
“I have refused to think about the whole scenario because I don’t know where to start from. Right now the aged parents of the deceased in Igbodo, Delta State, are yet to be notified on the death of their three children and four grandchildren. The suspected killer, whose first point of call was the Ozors, shot Sandra, his girlfriend; Katherine, his girl friend’s twin sister; Mrs Ozor, Sandra’s elder sister; Mrs. Ozor’s first daughter, Happiness and second daughter, Bethel.
While others died on the spot, Katherine and Bethel survived and were rushed to an undisclosed hospital. Three-year-old Miss Victory was spared. After that, the killer went to the home of the Odias and killed Mrs Ngozi Odia, eldest sister to the girlfriend and her three children including Angela, 12; Chidinma, 10 and Chinenye, eight years old. The suspect is still on the run but since then he has allegedly been threatening Mr. Ozor through calls.
That’s madness
Why will somebody date any man from Warri.
AFTER all RMD did to his first dead wife
valentine palaver
Funke Egbemode, hear that before your next write up where you praise your unserviceable and unworkable nigeria yet you still complain about your idiot leaders.
This is the adam lanza and james holmes of nigeria.
Funke Egbemode take note.
This is sad. I wish I can express my bitterness in print, but I can’t. It is terrible and outrageous, animalistic and barbarous. Mr. Ozor can never be the same again. May the Lord comfort him
A sad news to hear!

Adeyemi sandra, I don’t know why u choose to advertize your 419 job here. u are heartless.
Sandra. You must be a devil. Reading this awful & horrendous story, u have the heart to advertise your wares here. You certainly have the same heart with the killer.
U see what some of dis heartless igbos can do 2 dia fellow human being.when dis young lady was eating d crimal money ,she never knew dia is danger ahead.RIP 2 d death.
It is not an Igboman.
This must be one of those Bokoharam boys.
or………….?
BH activities!!!!! they dont do this please is one of the many evils committed by ibos for long not now.
Did jegede not do it to iya jonathan
Is like you read through your nose, he igbo my friend, because of this atrocity your brother commit, he is now BH na wa for you o.
Girls especially teenagers should be careful with the type of men they date.this guy knows this family in & out that’s why he was able to identify them & shot them.his enstranged girl friend might have collected a fortune from him & dumped him.this is a lesson to the women folk.be very careful with whom u date.as for the killer animal he must be caught & he must face the law.he is a fool & a coward.killing bcos of a woman when there many of them out there.
I lack words to justify this act, but then i believe men are given too much attension to ladies and it later affect them when they are rejected. So families expecially igbo mothers who insist on who their daughter should marry should be warned.
Just imagine, a whole family gun down. Jehovah may ur kingdom cum help human folks

This is part of end time events. Prepare to meet your maker at any point in time. As for the killer, it is just a matter of time unless he kills himself also.
‘When one finger touches oil, it will spread to others’. See what this girl’s misadventure has caused many families. May their souls rest in peace. But why should this guy go to this extent? What did other members of the girl’s family do to deserve this type of treatment, and the children too? What a heartless person.
Dis is madness! Imagine d idiot attacking a whole family bcos of a woman, he must be a coward.
I wonder why sme ladies wl b so comfortable havng affair wt criminals.is bad.dis guy is notin bt product of rubbery ganger.yet d lady stil entangle wth her.u cant eat ur cake and hve it back. Is d result..m..o.n.y go do smtin ooo..
Quite unfortunate. May their souls RIP. The stupid guy went wild, may he never find peace
The Yoruba land that was peaceful and holly before and after FESTAC festival have been bastardize by the OKORO people they are the one that rape Cynthia in FESTAC TOWN, kidnapping , arm robbery,money ritual, all sorts of atrocities in Lagos are been committed by this people,no wonder Hausa don’t want them in the North.
The Yoruba should wake up and do something about this people.
You need to visit FESTAC TOWN and see how they have deface the place, same thing in IKEJA,SURULERE,AJA, BADAGRY , they are now encroaching to OGUN STATE.I wonder if they have anybody left in their state.The bad thing about it is that they would go to any length for money.
I wish we could have the OLD LAGOS STATE back. OKORO PEOPLE GO BACK TO YOUR STATE!!!!!
ADE OMOOBA ODUDUWA YOUR HEAD IS NOT CORRECT FOR YOUR COMMENT. U ARE JUST A LUNATIC.
Lazy bump looking for free and abandoned property to inherit.You will die disappointed.Wishful dreamer.
Jegede the mechanic in Ibadan killed Iya Jonathan,ripped the tommy,severed the two breasts,head and private parts probably to make pepper soup along old ife road in ibadan.
the ladies should not take money from the person you are not going to marry, everyone blame the guy probably because of loss of life but some ladies like to play fast one on men taking from them and settle with abroad guy let this be a lesson to our ladies
@Ade Omooba Oduduwa i have a yoruba man living in my fathers hs in Abia State for over 38year n ur here talking rubish i dont blame u its ur parents i will blame u have no good home training May God help u change Amen
See how you are boiling in anger because the murderer is igbo, he is saying the truth.
@Ade Oduduwa……. Freedom of speech is good and i can see you are enjoying that…… but let me ask you,,, Do you want to chase away the only good thing that has happened to the entire yoruba land? those Okoro people has just been the only thing GOD used to bless the entire country and even the outside countries where you can find them, or do you want to invite hunger and stervation into the land of the yorubas in full force due to your ignorance? i hope you can check for yourself how the states where you can’t find any Okoro suffer and sterve, then you would be happy to thank GOD that you have them around.
Blame the killer not the girl because no one else knows the truth here but the dead lover & her killer boy friend. Maybe at first the poor girl didn’t know him to be a bad guy & when she found out decided to quit. May be she received so much from killer boyfriend or the guy had fallen crazily in lust (not love). He could be the type who beats up a woman & no decent woman likes being battered. Why kill people because of a woman? May be she told her family what she found out about the guy who I feel is an armed robber. I advise ladies to watch how they loot men in the name of love. Most girls don’t even care how a guy makes his money but how much they can loot/get from a guy. The source does not matter to them provided their MUGU is a complete DONATUS. Most have up to 20 mugus/ guys & collect money from all at same time. I feel for the family of the victims & pray that God shall give them the strength to bear the painful loss. I pray that the coward be caught, tried & executed because beasts like him are not supposed to walk the streets free.
It is very unfortunate that some people would totally deviate from the subject matter&start attacking &abusing tribes.evil& criminals abound everywhere.There is no tribe that does not have evil men.Think very well b4 u post rubbish here.
@Ade Oduduwa…….Thank God for the freedom of speech and as i can see you are really enjoying that…. but let me bring to your notice that those Okoro(s) are the only good thing that has happened to the entire toruba land and nigeria as a whole and any of the countries where you can find them. and never fail to do this one reserch and tell me the result , how the states where you can’t find any of the Okoros manage to live thier lives without farming and buying whatever they would want to buy from each other by the common means of ” trade by barter” i.e you give me yam and i will give you rice, is that the kind of life you want to still live in this modern age where you are still opportuned to have the Okoros around, due to your ignorance? Just thank God you have them around.
OMOBA ODUDUWA … U are a fool what about the two Yoruba brothers that killed their own junior brother for money in festac last year 2012……. Look incase you don know this know it today that your people are more dangerous and number one when it comes for anything JUJU, RITUALS, etc….Are u jealoius of the tribe called IGBO? Dont be fool becoz s God that made them great people thn your lazy kingsmen.
i think there is more to it than what we are hearing .i can,t still come to agreement that lady is just a girl friend or lover to this animal. maybe the family has wrong the man, there most be something that warrant the killing of almost an entire family.
Ade Omooba Oduduwa, ur anger, hatred and stupidity is far more than this criminal who killed bcos of woman. U can as well kill an Igbo neighbour around u forgetting that ur brothers lived in Onitsha, Enugu, Aba etc etc.. Apart from that, we are great as Igbos. Kill urself b4 u will come to our home land and massive growth we made for our onbcoming great grand children, yet unborn. We dominate u in ur cities bcos we set high standard of economic, trade and commerce that ur Yoruba tribe cannot match nor compete on. Reason why the Northerners and Yorubas cannot come to South East and Igbo South Southern areas is that they can make a head way-up, let alone see food chop or pay shop/house rent. So it boil down to who’s lazy tribe that yab people that feeds them?
U Ade, can also see ur own unconnected and irrelevant contribution on the very subject matter as ZERO. A fool u are. Ur type must have wrote out of point in most of the exams u sat in school, if u attend any at all.
Hear u name, Ade Omooba Oduduwa. Men, vermous and get lost, with that ur hatred and tribalism.
As for the foolish killer, u are sure that Nigeria packed prison is waiting for u. Selfish armed robber with character overwelmed with violence. Just bcos of a girl out of millions of Nigerian girl. If u have what it takes to win and keep a girl, bet me that u would have won the girl over and marry her, then establish a family with her to have her joining the union later. They must have seen this criminality on u, that made them to reject ur marital proposals. Shame on u. U can run, but u can hide from sun and light. He’s a coward. People who went on killing spree like this animal in Europe and America, do kill themselves afterwards, but this foolish man choose to live, while youngstars whose lives and blessed futures awaits ahead was sent to untimely grave. Wait and see, u IDIOT.
On the victims families, so sorry for ur bereavement, sorrows and mournings. It’s most unfortunate that families never believe in working on men’s character and use it as a bet to change lives and characters. I understand that it’s a bit difficult, but easier and better than having this kind of dirty event or avoidable occurances. Every families want alrerady made men in pocket and in character.
If the girl’s friend to this criminal hate this killer, she wouldn’t told the spiteful criminal that her family is a hinderance to their marital journey and the robber wouldn’t know the reason for his failure. Families should be very careful in a matter that relate to love and marriage, esp when the two direct parties want it to be, let no man put assunder. It can intoxicate like 100% Alchohol.
Anthony. London-UK.
Anthony Efobi, ur writing was very sensible and educative, though i am not good in reading long comments, but on this , it keeps making sense for me as i read on. So keep it up, may the souls of those that lost their life rest in peace, and may God grant the killer change of heart, in Jesus name amen.The earlier one give his/her life to Christ the better, for those that has been killed, who knows what could be the destination of their souls if they have not given their life to Christ.
Efobi, get one thing straight,I don’t have no hatred for any tribe, just like to call a spade a spade , on like u lots that don’t want to tackle the issue that U OKORO people are 2 full of yourself, massaging your ego that u were great in commerce and trade. I’ve got news for u, the Yoruba operate on a much more sophisticated level of commerce and trade than u people converting every residential hse and gutters to shops defacing Lagos thinking that u were smart .
If any of my people live in Onitsha or Enugu, i’m sure they won’t be killing , rapping and committing all sorts of offences for the sake of money and defacing Enugu under the pretense that they are smart.Typical example is that banger bomb incidence last Xmas, all for money.
Whatever your name is: I believe you created yourself and made sure you came into the world as Yoruba. See how foolish you are in all your postings here! You know what? Your posts show you to be a very shallow person who could hardly think beyond his skin, i.e if you do think at all! Give all glory to God who made you a Yoruba – the super tribal and efervescent tribe in the whole wide world. Please let others be! FOOL!
dino,not their state just cry for divison,i think it will save lagos for you,why cant u diety black ass hole yorubas be atleast once hornest.let all of us go out to demostret about dividing Nigeria into 3,4,or 5 countries as we want it.if not Lagos is for all as far as we remain in one country.u can not take earstern region money to develope Lagos and now said they should go to their states.after all lagos does not belong to yoruba,ok?u can not see many eastern people in yoruba land it is only lagos which belong origenaly to benin people.
sorry dino,am trying to reply that fool ade.
I DON’T KNOW WHERE TO START!, THIS SEEMS UNBELIEVABLE. GOD PLEASE I KNOW THAT YOU ARE SEEING ALL THESE THINGS.
May their gentle souls rest in peace-amen.
My people, give your life to jesus and get born again. If this girl is truly God fearing jesus loving soul, she wouldnt have been dating a mad evil guy. Be not unequally yoked with unbeliever. Been a true practising christian can prevent a lot of disasters for you. The issue is not just that all this people were killed but where can they spend their eternity. Where will you? The killer might repent and be saved tomorrow but the evil has only be done. Parents, start now to train that child, once he is in his teens, he will be the one training you on evil. You dont train a teenager but a child. Think about this, whether you like it or yes, without Jesus there is no eternal life. Jesus is alive. May God help mr Ozor to bear this irreparable lost
Warri in particular and Delta state in general has become home of various crimes. The Federal Government should declare state of emergency in that state. Capital punishment for a very serious crimes of this nature should be introduced and a mobile court to try offenders of serious crimes be established for quick dispensation of justice.
GOOD Comment, you are making sense, forget all those posting useless comment.
Jude i’m sure u ‘ve drank too much OGOGORO, for you to think that Lagos belong to Benin people.Yoruba are generally accommodating but u can not come to other peoples house and start defacing the place.Name me how many Yoruba has committed rape etc in OKORO land, u need to visit prison in Lagos to see how many of your people are languishing there for various offences.Beside this oil wells was develop with cocoa and groundnut revenue, because it’s in OKORO land don’t mean you own it.
Police should pls go after the killer now !.let get is name & picture publicize immediately pls !!
Ade Oduduwa,in acknowledgment of ur wise&intelligent contributions,i hereby award u national honour GCOF(grand commander of fools).May u never get tired of talking rubbish.
“Name withheld.” What a hollow position to take by the news media. Why then name the victim’s twin sister? You’d do the nation some good firstly to provide the killer’s photos – ask the victims’ family; the murdered girlfriend ought to have taken some pictures with the beast of a human. Meanwhile, please police provide details of the killer to facilitate offer of information for his arrest.
@Emma, how do u kno d guy is Igbo? D fact he is alledged 2b from Warri does not preclude him from being of any tribe. U see how ur out-of-place comment has snowballed into cross-fertilizations of abuses b/w friends. U mustnt post a comment if it has no constructive bearing to the subject matter.
@iyke, u need eye glass 2 be able 2 read. What did d man a native of imo mean 2 u? 95% of crime in nigeria is carry out by igbos .
This is very sad indeed…how on earth can a man born by a woman commit this kind of atrocities? No matter how you look at this callous act, it is very inhuman. i just blame some girls any ways, because they date guys who gives them fast cash and splashes gifts on them, without knowing the source of their wealth. some of these our girls abates and habores criminals ranging from armed robbers, kidnapers and ritualis, still protect and care for them, as long as they’re bringing money, no problem. when they will now decided to quit, the evil will start chasing them. girls, i urge you women folks to expose these criminals and stop hanging out with them, because as you hang out with them, they will still treat you like those their victims that they rob, kills and maims all to get money to entice you girls..imagine if this girl had informed the police earlier when she discovered that this guy was an armed robber, she and her family would’ve been saved, but see what her carelessness and ignorance have caused the entire family…. too bad and very sad.
Ewele! there may be more to the killing than marriage. The criminal knows they know much about his criminal activities, refusing to give out their daughter triggered the alert system. Sorry!
Why is it that any time an important issue is under deliberation, some tribal animals instead of seeing and saying things the way they are, will rather deviate and start fanning the embers of TRIBAL HATRED AND ETHNIC RIVALRY? This, I discover to be so common among a few certain Yoruba die-hard tribalists like Ade Omooba Oduduwa.Let them know that always verbally attacking Igbos on any available opportunity has never,will never and can never solve YORUBA myriads of problems including underdevelopment, mass poverty and stark illiteracy of Yoruba lower class.The attacks have never, will never and can never dampen the ever resilient and never-say-die spirit of the hard working, indomitable and result achieving Ndi-Igbo.
As for the hoodlum who undoubtedly must be an armed robber, the clock is ticking. It’s just a matter of time for him to face the music.This,however, is possible if and only if the POLICE will genuinely decide to do their work without calling for bribe.
May the souls of the departed R.I.P.
The killer is still on the prowl and threatening someone. With all this killing what is the police doing? The focus should be how to get this guy
Ade omo Oduduwa God bless u for calling de way it should be called. Now naija jews want to claim Lagos as part of jews land . What a joke. How come naija jews found it difficult to be proud of their own region like Enungu, Imo Anambra, instead of that they will claim any good place as there own. Naija jews are u still here? Thought u should have left my country (Nigeria) by now, afterall yesterday was ur was de day u promised to declear ur biafra country. It’s so sad to say u failed in all ur possing. All u have is mouth, de rest of Nigerians know that naija jews can not leave Nigeria, if they do how will they survive, n if they leave Naija they will be walking into an uncertainty, into an absmal pit. Naija jews don’t have any honour at all. Owerri bastard, hugo swine n hunchback stine chykee, u all should be very ashame of urself. Upon all ur bosting for ur d_day nothing happen. Shameless people. One thing I know for a fact, if naija jews should leave Nigeria for there evil biafra, crime in this Nigeria will go down by 70 to 80 per cent. A man came all de way from Imo, to kill a whole family in Lagos n some useless naija jews still have de gut to say de killer is not a jew. What a shame, this people will do anything to protect their own even when it’s obvious that they can not defend it. How I wish naija jews will leave my country for real Nigerians.
