An Ondo State High Court has sentenced two men, Tasur Abubakar and Ayuba Idris to death by hanging for robbery and murder.
The court also found the duo guilty of conspiracy and sentenced each to seven years imprisonment.
The two men were brought before the court over the killing of Mr Kwaku Richard Kwakye and his 27-year-old daughter, Tope Kwakye, in their home on May 1, 2019, at Ojomo Akintan Estate, Olufoam in Akure.
The duo, who were the security guards of the deceased, had confessed to killing the father and the daughter with motorcycle cables under the influence of tramadol and other dangerous drugs, revealing that they strangled them to death.
The State Counsel, John Dada, said the two men, Idris, 24, and Abubakar, 27, were charged to court on five counts.
