Ben Samuel, a longtime friend of Andrew Ochekwo, has shared insights into their friendship and Andrew’s past.
Ben recently spoke with media personality Daddy Freeze about his relationship with Andrew and the disappearance of Celine Ndudim and Afiba Tandoh, the two friends who went missing after allegedly meeting Andrew in Aba.
Ben, who runs the news website Naija24news, revealed that Andrew was born in the United Kingdom, where he built a successful business before serving time in prison for assaulting a woman.
According to Ben, he has known Andrew for over a decade, and they lived in the same community in the UK, and has visited him in Port Harcourt multiple times.
Ben Emphasized on the importance of focusing on the alleged incident rather than perpetuating conspiracy theories, he stated:
“I am Ben Samuel. I run the news ‘Naija24news’. It is a blog, it is a website, we have staff and all that. Andrew has been my friend for over 10 years. So, I know him. We lived in the same community in the UK. And I know quite a bit about him.
“So, I visited when I was in Nigeria and anytime I come to Nigeria I do go to see him in Port Harcourt. So, it is quite a very unfortunate situation that we are discussing about. But the conspiracy and the narrative out there are taking the main focus from the main reason why this thing took place – the alleged incident.
“…I am calling this alleged until the Nigerian Police come out and speak on this…Andrew was adopted and Andrew was raised in Nigeria. He told me this because he explained his early growth when we discussed.”
