A Nigerian couple has been arrested for the murder of a fellow countrywoman identified as Happiness in Libya.
According to the Libya Observer, the police forces arrested the couple after the suspects allegedly killed the woman and dumped her body in the street near the Nigerian Embassy in Tripoli.
A Libya returnee, Oyiza, who had reported about the murder last month, said the wife hit the deceased on her head with heavy metal and when they noticed she wasn’t very conscious, the husband called a taxi driver and they dumped her near the Nigerian Embassy.
“My dearest Akwa Ibomites, Here’s your daughter, Happiness Monday. She was abandoned half dead at the Nigerian Embassy Tripoli, Libya. Unfortunately, she died at the hospital. She needs to be buried but nothing can be done without the consent of her relatives. Can you please identify her or please share to various Akwa Ibom platforms so we can get in touch with any family member? It’s a matter of urgency and I would appreciate if you come through for her so she can get her final rest. The only information gotten from her is her name.” she wrote in the post.
