It was gathered that the incident happened on Thursday, 18th of August, 2022 in the Himikidu community, Michika Local Government Area of the state.
Elisha was said to have killed the victims with stones and sticks which he had used in hitting them on their heads many times.
The incident was reported at the Divisional Police Headquarters, Michika by the grandfather of the victims.
Preliminary investigation reveals that the victims’ mother got separated from the suspect two months earlier after they had a misunderstanding.

The Commissioner of Police, CP SK Akande who expressed his sadness over the in-human act, however, directed the Deputy Commissioner of Police CID to take over the investigation and ensure the prosecution of the suspect to serve as deterrent to others.
