Delta State Police Command has declared wanted one Michael
Ogbeife, an SS3 student of Erhimu Secondary School, Abraka in the State, for
beating a teacher of the school, Joseph Ossai, to death.
Michael is said to be on the run after perpetrating the
illicit act on Thursday.
It was gathered that Michael had on that fateful day
engaged the teacher in a scuffle that resulted in the teacher giving up the
ghost during the fight.
The deceased teacher, who was said to be in charge of
Agricultural Science and Biology in the school until his demise, had reportedly
flogged Michael’s younger sister, Promise Ogbeife who was involved in a dispute
with her classmate.
It was gathered that Michael got infuriated by the teacher’s
decision to flog his sister and the enraged SS3 student resorted to a fight
with the teacher.
Sources said that Michael angrily left the school’s premises
after his sister was flogged, and later returned back, heading straight to the
staff room for a showdown with the teacher.
Some of our sources alleged that Michael had initially
rushed home to get a charm before engaging the teacher in the fight.
It was gathered that the teacher collapsed after some
punches from the student which left the teacher with a bleeding nose just as
blood was also gushing out from his mouth.
Consequently, the teacher was rushed to a private hospital
in the community, from where he was referred to the government hospital where
he was confirmed dead on arrival.
Reacting to the gory incident, the proprietor of the school,
Mr Erhimu, told journalists that he was awaiting full details of the matter, as
he was not around when the incident happened.
The visibly worried proprietor has however directed that the
school be shut till Monday noting that he had been to the police station over
the matter.
Confirming the incident, the police public relations officer
for Delta State Command, DSP Bright Edafe, told newsmen that the suspect is on
the run.
“The suspect is nowhere to be found for now, but his sister
is in protective custody”, the PPRO said just as he insisted that efforts are
being intensified to arrest the fleeing suspect.
