Over 100 angry youths stormed the premises of Protea Hotel in Benin, Edo State, to protest against the killing of a 22-year-old man, Chibuike Edeh, a housekeeping employee of the hotel.
Chibuike was said to have been killed by policemen via torture while trying to get him to confess to the crime of stealing N42,000 from a hotel guest room. His family, who had been sent off to get a 27, 000 Naira bail fee, came back to meet him dead.
