The widow of the policeman beheaded and burnt to death by suspected members of the disbanded Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) in Oyibo, Rivers State, Mrs Blessing Swawale, has accused her in-laws of collecting the N20m compensation and other entitlements of her late husband given to her family.
The woman said she was still in pains following the murder of her husband, Inspector Orman Swawale, on October 20, 2020, when IPOB attacked three police stations in Oyibo.
Recall that the assailants beheaded four policemen, burnt them beyond recognition and carted away rifles in various stations during the attack on the Oyigbo Police Station in the wake of the #EndSARS protest.
In a voice note to PUNCH Metro on Sunday, Blessing said her late husband’s brother collected the N20m released to her as compensation by the government.
