And people were running helter-skelter.
“It was Zentus’s boys that killed Azubuike and it was on the 23rd of May, around some minutes past 8pm.”He said “The truth is that I was not at home and so cannot tell the beginning of the crisis that led to Azubuike’s death, apart from what I heard from witnesses, just like other people.
