The Nigeria Police Force Authorities have apprehended Jonathan Marcus following double murder accusations that were made against him at Apo Legislative Quarters on the first of April, 2024.
In Abuja this Friday, FCT Police Commissioner Ben Igweh said during a media briefing that Marcus accepted responsibility for killing an old couple and his motive was simply their failure to keep their financial promise.
The Commissioner further explained that Marcus was caught in Obajana, Kogi State after the crime. He took N200,000 from the deceased’s account and ran away.
Deeper inquiry has shown that Marcus had been working for the couple as a driver before he chose to kill them.
