The trial of Benjamin Best, a Nigerian punter better known as Killaboi, is scheduled to begin on Thursday, January 15.
Cordelia Okonye, the mother of Augusta Onuwabhagbe, who was killed in 2023, gave the update on her Instagram stories. She said the trial will be heard at the High Court, Tafawa Balewa Square, and enjoined everyone to come and listen to Killaboi confess.
It would be recalled that Killaboi was accused of taking the life of Miss Onuwabhagbe, a 21-year-old first-class student of Lead City University, Ibadan, at his residence located at No. 24a Abiola Apooyi Street, Oral Estate, Ajah, Lagos, on 13th July 2023.
