Suspected Yahoo Boy Attempts to Behead Girlfriend for Money Rituals in Bayelsa

A Nigerian man who is suspected to be an internet fraudster, ‘Yahoo boy’ has been apprehended by the police in Bayelsa State after an attempt to use his girlfriend for money rituals was foiled.

According to reports surrounding the story, the suspect was nabbed when he was trying to behead the victim along SETRACO Road, Amassoma/Ogobiri axis of the state on Tuesday morning, September 21.

The lady reported to be a student of the Niger Delta University Wilberforce Island (NDU) was fortunately rescued by youths of Ogobiri community and some police operatives.

A post by Kokobaiye Abeki, Special Adviser to Governor Diri on New Media, tells that the suspect who has been dating the girl, lured her to Setraco Road along Ogobiri-Toruebeni drive.

The post reads;

“After he succeeded in roping her hands and legs, he was at the verge of cutting her neck when the savour of her nightmare (Ogobiri Youths) who traced his earlier movement through a revelation from a nearby person caught him together with the efforts of the men of the Operation Doo-Akpo NPF special squad.” Abeki wrote.

The suspect has since been handed over to the Nigeria Police for more investigation.
