A 59 year old grandmother was on Wednesday found dead in her bedroom at the One Day Road, Awkunanaw area of Enugu.
The woman identified as Mrs. Agnes Elue, from Ogwashi-Uku, Delta state was said to have been clubbed to death last Sunday by her teenage house boy whose identity is being withheld. Elue was an academic staff of the Federal Government College, Enugu before her death. She was popularly known as “Nwanyi Maluogo” by neighbours because of her kind disposition.
The house boy, according to sources, is a close relation of the deceased.
Police said the house boy who concealed the murder for 4 days confessed that he used a pestle to hit the woman during a scuffle.
Enugu Police command spokesman, Ebere Amaraizu who confirmed the incident disclosed that the lid was blown open Wednesday morning when the same house boy went to a widow’s flat in the same compound and attempted to rape her.
He had gone to the widow demanding N2000 from her but before the widow could reply him, he pounced on her and was stripping her naked when the alarm raised by the widow attracted the attention of the caretaker of the compound. The caretaker promptly rushed to her rescue and dealt several blows on the boy while the widow also hit the boy with a pestle.
It was at this stage that people rushed and arrested the boy. He was taken upstairs to report to his madam only to discover her decomposing body in her bedroom.
The house boy instantly confessed that he killed her on Sunday night while it was raining. He did not give reason for his action. But the police are not ruling out rape since the body of the woman was without clothes when it was found.
According to TheNation, Amaraizu confirmed that the house boy who is also from Ogwashi-Uku in Delta State is in their custody while police investigate the murder and the attempted rape.

I bet she was treating the boy anyhow despite the fact that she was known to be 'kind' by her peers. I know how Nigerians act towards people of lower class; it is condecending, arrogant, and not pretty. This goes to show that you should not treat people anyhow just because they are not in the same income bracket as you. They are still people and you are no better than them. The fact that he is being called house-boy when he is a close relative of her is evidence that she probably did not even treat him with the respect deserving of a human being.

Careful how you jump to conclusions. You may have witnessed something similar with the woman being the aggressor but it doesn't always play the same way all the time. If he killed his madam because she was unkind to him, why did he try to rape the widowed neighbor? And remember he's suspected to have raped the madam too because her body was found naked.

Madam justice with wide mouth, How many good do you do to people of the so called lower class. You have not noticed that the people that show more love, pity and kindness to the so called lower class are always victims of their manipulations and vegeance against the society. Whenever you become succesful carry the so called lower class and keep in your house without being careful, infact carry all the never do well in your family and your village and accomodate them in your house, also carry the ones from your church and keep them in your house, give them free acess to every thing and make sure not to bother wether they are ready to be useful and productive or not. I am sure your attitude towards them will remain the same after 1 yr.

You called him teenage house boy. How can he still be called teenage house boy with all this big issues and action done by which only a matured and adult can do. He should be treated accordingly. He will reap what he sowed.
