The usual suspects are first taken from the close family or friend of the victim. Do you ever wonder why?
In this day and age, it is becoming increasingly difficult to trust anyone including your family members. Where does on begin; a son organises gun men to steal from his mother and sending her to the grave before her time.
For this same reason, one must be empowered spiritually to stop them before they can stop you.
An article from the Daily Sun
A Lagos based car dealer and his wife have been arrested over their alleged involvement in a robbery attack that led to the murder of his US-based mother. The suspects, Adedeji Idowu, 46 and his wife Adebimpe, 30, and two others are currently telling the police how Idowu's US-based mother, Alhaja Sakirat Idowu, 65, was shot dead following her refusal to part with her money.
The man, who gave a graphic account on how his mother was robbed and finally shot dead, said his intention was not to kill his mother but that the gunmen he hired were overzealous.
He said when he was deported from the US over an Immigration offence; things became very difficult for him and his wife.
He said his mother assisted him by sending him money but the money was not enough for him to set up a business.
He narrated how on a particular day his mother phoned him that she was visiting Nigeria and he told his friend Ologode, how his mother failed to help him recover a debt of N4 million owed him in the US.
According to him, Ologode told him that he would contact some boys who would rob his mother. He said when his mother finally arrived Nigeria, he and Ologode went to the airport to pick her. When they arrived home, the youths Ologode contacted for the robbery had already arrived and were waiting at the gate.
According to him when his mother settled down, he pretended that he was going outside, so, Ologode and his boys carried out the operation.
Ologunde narrated "As I was coming back, I heard gunshot and I knew things had gone awry."
The man who broke down in tears said: " I did not send them to kill my mother. I only wanted them to rob her and give me money to set up a business."
The man who begged his father to forgive him over the dastard act admitted that his late mother had been of great assistance to him and his family.
He said after the robbery operation he got a share of N200 dollars. "I don't even know how much Ologode and his boys collected. They only gave me 200 dollars, laptop and jewelry, which I gave to my wife."
His wife, Adebimpe in her own story claimed that she only knew about her husband's involvement in the robbery after the operations.
She said: "When people were pointing fingers at my husband, I did not believe it until the heat became too much on him and he confided in me that he organized the robbery."
She revealed that her husband eventually sent her to meet Ologode for the loot. "But I was disappointed when Ologode handed me 200 dollars, a laptop and jewelries. I was surprised that my husband would organize robbery against his mother who had been assisting us."
She said she could not spill the bean as she was protecting her marriage. "If I had known, I would have told his father about it. I am ashamed of myself.
Ologode, on his part told Daily Sun that he was trying to assist Adedeji in getting money to set up a business. He claimed that it was one Ambali, who fired the shot that killed the woman, adding that when he questioned Ambali on why he killed the woman, Ambali said that he wanted to threaten the woman but misfired.
He said he had begged God to forgive him and other members of the gang who are now at large. On how he procured the gun used during the robbery, he said it was one Irabor who brought the shot gun.
The immediate past Commissioner of Police (CP), Mr. Marvel Akpoyibo before handing over to the new CP, Mr. Isa Alkali told newsmen that it took intelligence gathering to unravel the mystery behind the murder of Alhaja Sakirat Idowu.
He confirmed that her biological son, a graduate of Texas Southern University, Adedeji and his wife Adebimpe masterminded the armed robbery that led to her murder.
He gave the names of other members as Maminu Olusoji alias Ologode, Irabor, Owolowo and Ambali.

The Spirit of Forgiveness
So bruised, humiliated beyond human recognition, and possibly betrayed by those you love most. You bath tub becomes full with tears and finally blood with your heart racing for your victims’ end. Thoughts running wild on how to eliminate them, but if that came to past you are still as bad as the fresh wound.
Further launching into a long brawl reduces the friction but the wound exacerbates because you are still run down by hard feelings.
Desperately in need of liberty and have your sanity in check but nevertheless have your victims pay for your Misery. Just how complicated can it get trying so hard to achieve conflicting goals and you gradually tap into that natural order of the spirit of forgiveness.
You suddenly realise this requires no physical exertion, not expensive, gives you emotional independence, livens your spirit, awakens your heart but yet leaves your victims with a conscience to battle with for the rest of their lives which is far worse than having to take up vengeance yourself.
Yet the spirit of forgiveness is never the first resort in the face of betrayal, anger,death, calumny and despair.
