THEWILL had exclusively reported that Maria from Usen in Egor Local Government Area of Edo State, passed on, on Thursday December 2 at her home in Ugbo, Benin-City, the Edo State capital at the age of 85.
Unfortunately, the Octogenarian did not die of old age neither was she nursing an ailment. She died through the dastardly act of one of her maids employed to live with and attend to her needs.
The maid strangled her in her home, ransacked her home for jewelries and money and disappeared into thin air.
Maria had remained confined to a wheel chair since her 80th birthday, unable to move around, and just managing to stay alive.
She managed to survive the dark days of the Covid19 pandemic only to be killed by a hired hand entrusted to take care of her.
Efforts are being made to track and apprehend the maid who is reportedly from Cross River State.
Security forces have been activated to fish her out and the late woman’s children have vowed to stop at nothing to track her, even if it means going to her village to arrest her family members.
Maria was married to Chief Gabriel Igbinedion, the Esama of Benin Kingdom as his first wife.
Of all family to mess with you chose the Igbinedion, you have just terminated your destiny with your own hands criminal...
ReplyDeleteI wish your family won't be dragged into your mess.
RIP Ma.
DeleteWho did Lucky Igbinedion offend...first was the fatal accident of his son and nephew. Now the senseless killing of his aged mother just for valuables.
Exactly! She's done for! Rip Mrs Igbinedion.
DeleteThey would be the beneficiaries of her crime. They should all face the consequences. That was how one of the servants murdered Professor Iluyomade just for money.
DeleteGod help us in this country.
Resist the urge to shalaye, what relevance does his son or nephew's death have to this matter on ground?
DeleteSame thing I said, she has dragged her family in trust me.
DeleteLord have mercy! What an evil being. Rest in peace ma
ReplyDeleteBut the girl didnt need to strangle a bed-ridden 80+year old b4 she can steal from her. Even if she was daft, she should know the family is an influential one and will surely find her.
DeleteThis story...they should investigate more and be sincer with the report they put out to the public.
How are sure are they the girl was not kidnapped by the people who strangled the old woman? If she lived with her, does she need to ransack the how to find her valuables? Won't she quietly take them, stay back and fake robbery?
That was my thought too, why would she ransacked her valuables since she was her live-in caregiver? She knew where valuables were kept. The girl might be innocent, they need to do thorough investigation, so that innocent person will not be punished. Rest In Peace mama.
DeleteYou are right@Saphire.They should think outside the box.
DeleteMs Sapphire, you're indeed wise. I love your submissions
DeleteSo sad. The maid should have just stolen the jewelry and left the woman alone. I don’t know if it’s greed that is causing this total disregard for life. That’s how one houseboy killed my Dad’s friend with pestle because of about 3m that the man withdrew from the bank that day and was never found till date.
ReplyDeleteKaren
He would have finished spending the 3m by now and his life far more wretched + a cursed future.
DeleteTrust me, he is already paying for his wickedness.
DeleteLet's all hide somethings from outsiders or sometimes show them our bad side to keep them in check.
Nawa oooooo,they will surely catch her
ReplyDeleteMay mama soul rest in peace 🙏
The stupid girl should consider herself and family toast, she messed with the wrong family, they will fish her out!!! Wicked twats everywhere.
DeleteOh! RIP mama
ReplyDeleteThis maid would be fished out and sent to the dungeons, evil being.
Rest in peace
ReplyDeleteTrouble dey sleep nyanga go wake'am.
ReplyDeleteI pity this lady and her family.
The foolish maid get mind take kill Iye,her own don cast be dat!
ReplyDeleteJeez.....people are mean!!! She will surely be caught.
ReplyDeleteRip mama
I pity the maid, she just wasted her life for nothing by killing the poor old woman.
ReplyDeleteThe Igbinedion family will look for her, find her and deal with her mercilessly. This woman is the reason the former governor is alive today, So He doesn't joke with his mum. Rest in peace Iye Lucky😢😢😢
Jesus!!
ReplyDeleteWhy so wicked?
Rip mama Lucky
I don't get it. She is confined to a wheel chair. Why kill her when she is even defenseless?
ReplyDeleteThe girl could have taken what she wants and disappear just like she did. Now she has blood. On her hands.
Wickedness in high places.
Don't mind the little greedy witch.
DeleteDo they even think? She probably needed time to escape so she had to resort to this because I cannot wrap my head around this.
I wonder how this househelp from hell was recruited into that home.
Fear house helps! If u must put a CCTV to monitor them except u pple r wishing she does secretly
ReplyDeleteIbo latun jasi bayi oo
ReplyDeleteWhere we dey again??
Abi what is even happening sef
Ko ye mi o,this is terrible
DeleteEvil everywhere.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wicked soul! These days, I just don't understand the disregard some people have for human lives.
ReplyDeleteI pray they apprehend her soonest.
😱😨 is the maid mad or something?
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of trouble has she put herself and everyone connected to her? 😟😞
Greed is bad oh, she would have gained more by taking proper care of the woman and doing her work diligently.
Your last paragraph is on point but greediness has landed her and her family in total mess..
DeleteI don't pity her if she's caught.
True talk. My family gave my father's last male home-keeper N1million. He was there till my father's last days. And by the way (to show this woman's alleged wickedness is not tribe based) my faher's home keeper is from Cross River or Akwa Ibom State.
DeleteIs like the maid no too get sense, u dare kill a matriarch of a known family and expect not to die with ur entire family? She would have just stolen whatever but never murder an old woman.
ReplyDeleteRIP to mama and the maid soon.
Such an evil act... Sure she will soon be arrested.... Rest In Peace mama
ReplyDeleteYou are a goner lady, you will surely rot in jail of you think you can steal money your family didn't work for. Ole! %SAO%
ReplyDeleteRIP Mama, this is so sad.
ReplyDeleteWhy kill her? Could have just left with what you stole,na WA Rip to mama
ReplyDeletewhat a generation,Rip mama
ReplyDeleteWickedness and greed!
ReplyDeleteNa wah o
May her soul rest in peace
If my mother was 80, she will be living with me, whether im married or not.. i no wan hear story.
ReplyDeleteWhat if she doesn't want to live with you?
Deletewhat if you are in America and your husband says no
DeleteAdieu
ReplyDeleteSo they will arrest her family members because that is the Nigerian constitution or penal code?
If the family member is in the UK, they will go and arrest her?
They will pick up her sisters that are married or what?
What an outburst of shameful words from the Igbinedons.
Please try to understand, they are very hurt right now.......
DeleteProbably emotions running high.
DeleteOnly an individuals can be held accountable for their crimes, not families.
* meant to write an individual
DeleteIt is not good to talk when angry. But you see eh, Nigerian political families that I know are not bluffing,
Deletethey will do exactly what they have said here o.
Some people are very wicked,may Mama's soul rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteSome people can be so wicked,jeez!! strangle an old woman to death because of material things,oga o.the end time is truly near,may mama's soul rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteThey should draw her back with JuJu wherever she is she will come back by herself.
ReplyDeleteHaaa, this maid has bought a ton of wahala.
ReplyDeleteThis is why I don't like hiring maids,that is how my uncle's maid threw their 7months old baby from 3 storey building in 2002 the child died and the maid went to prison,that's is the only male child they had.
ReplyDeleteWhat????
Delete😭😭😭😭
What a wicked world!
Jesus!
DeleteHow heartless can some humans be...........
you guys think one sided goodness me, she is in a wheelchair for crying out loud the maid could have easily robbed her while sleeping and ran away. what if someone killed her and the maid, robbed her and buried the maids body in a shallow grave somewhere. knowing exactly how Nigerians think! now the poor maids family will end up being collateral damage, what a world we live in where matters are concluded before investigation. police should ping the maids phone to get her last location before it went off. that will help in this investigation.
ReplyDeleteThank God there is one critical mind here, I was about giving up hope.
DeleteI am thinking has the police carried out their thorough investigation already? It must take a really daft person to just strangle and abscond knowing how influential that family is. I think there is more to this.
DeleteI don't pity her at all,she has bought curse upon her life..
ReplyDeleteRip.mama
Her life is over, of all families to do this to
ReplyDeleteI don't believe this story cos I have witnessed first hand how rich people spin stories to make someone a scape goat. From the story above, the old woman was confined to a wheelchair and just managing to stay Alive, how can the maid kill her and steal from her? Does she need to strangle her before stealing her stuff? Can't she steal them when she is sleeping? Or steal them and remove her phone from beside her, put it off, drop it somewhere she cannot reach in another part of the house and run away? How are we sure the maid is even alive a well?
ReplyDeleteWorking as a maid in Nigeria is very dangerous.
you had better believe o. evil Maids everywhere, I read a case that happened in 2014 where a retired judge, Olufumilayo Timehin was killed by her male house help
DeleteWicked maid.
ReplyDeleteThe days are evil..God pls expose any close enemy pretending as friends...
ReplyDeleteMay her soul rest in peace
ReplyDeleteDo they have cctv to come to that conclusion? I think she could steal right under the woman's nose without having to kill her and the woman wouldn't suspect.
ReplyDeleteDoes this mean there are no security men in that house?
ReplyDeleteStrangled a woman on wheelchair to death because of jewelries, proper investigation should be carried out to avoid punishing an innocent person. May mama Igbinedon soul rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteShe wasn't alone on that mission. She must have an accomplice .
ReplyDeleteThe thought of killing alone? what gave her courage to do such,Mehn I can't deal.All these killers hope they will later become somebody's wife or husband if not caught?
