It is reported that the two men, believed to be homosexuals, got acquainted on social media. Okorocha allegedly lured the late victim to the hotel room with the intention of having sex with him. However John resisted Okorocha’s attempt, which resulted in a tragedy.
According to police, after killing the man, Okorocha left the hotel, lying to the staff that he wanted to buy something outside. The naked body of the victim was discovered by the hotel management performing routine checks in the rooms.
The case was immediately reported to the police and the suspect was nabbed with the help of John’s parents. It is reported that Okorocha confessed to the crime saying he committed it in anger because John refused to have sex with him. The man is currently at Ikoyi Prison pending the advice of the Directorate of Public Prosecution.
It will be recalled that in the beginning of the year, Nigeria’s President Goodluck Jonathan signed the bill outlawing gay relationships. The law stipulates for 14 years of imprisonment to “a person who enters into a same sex marriage contract or civil union”.
