At the time, it was suspected that LT. Yusuf had stabbed Lorraine, a 300 level student of Rivers state university, because she refused to accept a breakup from him, and he was on the run after killing her. But investigation has uncovered the truth behind Lorraine’s death. Investigation also revealed that LT. Yusuf was not on the run, but had also been killed and burnt.
Operatives of the IGP-Intelligence Response Team arrested LT. Yusuf’s houseboy, Taddues Jaja, 28, following the death of Lorraine and the disappearance of Yusuf. During interrogation, Jaja confessed that he murdered Lorraine during an argument. Afterwards, in a bid to cover up his crime, he also murdered the unsuspecting officer by poisoning his drink with an overdose of a drug named “Talen”.

After his confession, Jaja took operatives to the forest where he burnt LT Yusuf and the officer’s carcass was found burnt beyond recognition. With the aid of a pathologist, the remains were recovered and deposited at UPTH mortuary.
A car and a phone belonging to the naval officer were recovered. The car had already been sold by Jaja to a buyer in Benin city and the phone had already been sold to a different buyer in Port-Harcourt.
