Abbas Adio, 36, trained to save lives, but he took one in July in Benin when he had to eat his cake and have it.

And he showed some level of brilliance that only a professional criminal can deploy.

According to hired to Yemisi Opalola, the Osun police Command spokesperson, Adio, who claimed to be a physician in one of the Kwara State Government-owned hospitals, murdered the taxi driver he hired during a trip to Benin City, Edo State in July.

“The Edo State Police Command had sent a distress call to the Osun Command that a white coloured Toyota Camry car with registration number YAB368CN was stolen from Benin City and tracked to Osun State.

“The Police Command swiftly put a security mechanism in place and the said car was intercepted along Ejigbo/Ogbomoso road while the occupant was arrested.

His derring-do began when he travelled from Kwara to Benin, and got the cabbie Emmanuel Oyiobo he murdered to drive him round for the days he spent. The two thereafter became friends.

Adio later called his friend (victim) in Benin that he wanted to sell his car, and Oyiobo asked him to come over to Benin.

They eventually sold the car—for N1.4m.

Oyiobo still drove him round in Benin after the deal.

“The suspect in the course of his stay in Benin after selling his car   injected his friend (deceased) with a substance suspected to have killed him on 03/09/2022,’ the police spokesperson said.

“He subsequently dumped his corpse in a nearby bush and made away with his white Toyota Camry muscle.”
