Police Arrest Content Creator 'Odogwu Of Asaba' Over Alleged Rape

Police say the 44-year-old content creator made useful statements after a petition triggered his arrest and an investigation into the woman’s death.

  • On Tuesday, the Delta State Police Command arrested popular content creator Ifeanyi Ogbonna, known as "Odogwu of Asaba," over allegations he raped a 20-year-old woman who later died by suicide after recording an accusing video.
  • Favour, a woman from Warri, traveled to Asaba after Ogbonna invited her under the pretext of mentoring her in content creation, having first contacted him online seeking financial help during personal challenges.
  • According to accounts, Ogbonna took the woman to a hotel where he allegedly assaulted her; she later recorded a final video declaring him responsible for her death after using WhatsApp's 24-hour disappearing messages feature.
  • Police Public Relations Officer Bright Edafe confirmed the arrest on Wednesday, noting it followed a petition filed by human rights activist Comrade Israel Joe.
  • The suspect remains in police custody and has allegedly confessed to the crime, while Commissioner of Police Yemi Oyeniyi assured the public that all allegations would be thoroughly investigated.
