The suspect said they went into Ekweremadu’s house to look for money, but said he ended up with nothing as he was eventually caught while other members of the gang escaped.
He said: “Upon entering the room, we met Ekweremadu’s son, who tactfully took them to his father’s room and started calling ‘honey, honey’ and his father opened the door.
“We had thought that the young man was calling his wife to open the door for him, only to find a man.”
Parading the suspect before newsmen, Force Public Relations Officer, Jimoh Moshood, insisted that police investigation carried out so far did not reveal any assassination attempt on Ekweremadu’s life. Rather, he reiterated it was a case of burglary and attempt to commit robbery in the residence of Ekweremadu’s residence.
