A Nigerian woman living in Bavarian, Germany, Mrs F. Owodunni, is alleging foul play after his 20-year-old son visiting Nigeria allegedly committed suicide. She claimed the son may have been killed.
According to a petition sent to the Federal Criminal Investigation Department (FCID), Homicide Section, Alagbon Close, Ikoyi, Lagos, Mrs Owodunni said she started suspecting foul play after people close to the boy, Edwin Owodunni, began to avoid her phone calls while the boy was with them in Nigeria.
She said, “I am writing a petition about the suspected murder of my son, Edwin Owodunni, 20, and a citizen of Germany. “My son had been coming to Nigeria to visit his father and this trip was his fourth. Edwin came to Nigeria on March 16, 2017 for the burial of his paternal grandmother in the village at Owerri. “
Edwin was expected to return to Germany on April 7. He was communicating with me (via phone). He called on April 12 to inform that he had extended his flight to May 12 as he wanted to spend more time with his father.
That was the last time the family here in Germany heard from Edwin.
All efforts to reach Edwin’s father proved abortive. All efforts to reach my son also proved abortive.
“But to our surprise, we were told that Edwin had committed suicide. We got this news on June 26 while Edwin allegedly committed suicide about three months ago in his father’s village in Owerri”.
She said the boy was buried without her knowledge, saying he could have been a victim of ritual killing. “To this end, we want the police to thoroughly investigate this case to unravel the mystery behind the death of my son”.
Vanguard's efforts to get Alagbon to speak on the case were not successful as the Public Relations Officer (PPRO) of the FCID was said to be away to Jos.
Meanwhile, officers Sunday Vanguard met at the FCID did not deny that the case was with them. The officers also admitted that the father of the boy, Edwin Obele, had been arrested in connection with the son’s death.

In order to bring the killers to book, you have to involve German government since he is a citizen of Germany because Nigeria police will just take bribe and forget the matter. His father may be behind his death because jealousy for not living or having more influence over the boy's life. RIP my son.

Non-ibo wey no fear ibos, dey play with him life. You, a Yoruba woman allowed your son to visit his ibo father unaccompanied??? I read from other blogs that the woman doesn't even know his family. She just allowed the man to sweet mouth and deceive her to destruction. Ibos don't have regard for non ibos, except there's money involved. People wise up!!!

And more troubling is that the MOST INCOMPETENT Nigeria POLICE FORCE in the WORLD can do nothing.
Even if the EVIDENCE is staring them in the face they will NOT see it.
NICE country. NASTY citizens!
You are right my dear. Nigeria is a bad place. Can you believe that a young man with a good heart to visit his motherland will be killed. Nigeria is honestly a bad Country with many bad and dark heart people. It is very frightening and that's why abroad do not want to visit Nigeria. Full of bad evils and all in the name of money

Your hatred towards Igbos may deny you a potential husband from your village because any woman with such a bitter heart like yours towards a whole race can not be a future good mother / wife or even a single baby mama.
