A notorious thug in Kogi State, Abubakar Abdulkarim, has told the blood-cuddling tale of how politicians engaged him to assassinate their perceived enemies.
He also narrated how he killed his latest victim, one Farouk Lawal, another thug who was allegedly hired by some unnamed politicians to eliminate him. Not only did he succeed in killing Lawal, he cut the deceased’s corpse into three, each of which was buried in three different local government areas in the state.
Abubakar who goes by the nickname, ‘Ijaw Boy’, is also known as ‘Ijogbon’ (which means trouble). He revealed that until he fell into the cold embrace of the law, he had killed so many people and lost count of the number.
For years, the dreaded thug and political assassin had been a thorn in the flesh of the Kogi State Police Command.
He told shocked newsmen that he was a master in the ‘art’ of killing, a skill he happily put at the disposal of influential politicians in Ebiraland, who allegedly hired him to either terrorize their opponents or summarily kill them.
The road to the end of Abubakar’s reign of terror, assassination and thuggery began in February this year, when he allegedly killed Lawal and escaped to Port Harcourt, Rivers State to seek refuge.
Incensed by the dastardly act, the police launched a nationwide manhunt for Abubakar. With excellent detective work, the police succeeded in arresting him in Port Harcourt and giving him a hard ride back to Kogi State.
In the course of interrogation, he recounted to the police how he killed Lawal who, he alleged, had been hired to eliminate him by some politicians who were uncomfortable with him being around after he claimed to have become born-again, following a visit to The Synagogue Church of All Nations in Lagos where he allegedly underwent deliverance therapy.
