The Imo State police command has arrested one Friday Nnaekezie from Oru west LGA of Imo state suspected to be the mastermind and killer of Late Magistrate Remi Ogu of Magistrate of Oru West Magistrate Court in Imo state, Channels Television reports.

While addressing newsmen on the development in Owerri the Imo state capital, the state’s Commissioner of Police Dasuki Galadanchi says the suspect paid the sum of 500,000 Naira to 3 hired killers from Lagos who carried out the dastardly act.
