The body of a young man suspected to be in his early 40s was found in a stagnant lake at a community called Gbewordokorpe, about a kilometer away from the Agbozume Market near Elokorpe.

Community folks who woke up to the sad scene on the early hours of Saturday, 14th December, 2019 were very astonished as they attributed the murder to various reasons.
