Mr Peter Ndirika, 42, husband of the woman killed alongside her one year, two months old baby by bullets from rampaging
robbers that attacked two banks at 4th Avenue, Festac Town, Lagos, on Tuesday, said yesterday that his late wife and baby would make heaven.
This came on a day policemen from the Anti-Bomb Squad and other sections under the Lagos State police command were sighted at the affected banks, taking finger prints. However, it was gathered that an inquiry would be instituted against the mobile policemen deployed to guard the affected banks.
Ndirika, an evangelist in the Lord’s Chosen Church, reportedly left his home that fateful day with a goodbye wave from his wife, Jane, unknown to him that it was a final farewell. Unfortunately, when he returned home, he reportedly met his apartment on Road 8 in disarray, with blood stains on the wall.
Narrating how the sad news was broken to him, Odirika said: “When I got back home in the evening, I saw blood every where and people in the house. My wife’s relative, a lady, was cleaning the blood and at the same time exclaiming, ‘My sister! My sister!.’ When I asked what happened to her sister, my wife, she kept quiet. Those
around simply told me to go to the hospital at First Gate.
When I got there, I saw my wife lying lifeless. The next question I asked was where was my daughter. I was also told she had been taken to Navy hospital at Satellite town. Immediately, I moved my wife’s corpse to the Lord’s Chosen Hospital, from where she was transferred to Alimosho
General Hospital.
