“They went to shoot E.P, they beat him. I begged him to mention the names of those that beat him but he didn’t. I did not mention to anyone that I was his mother because he was scared I’d get kidnapped.
“I have spent 5 months in the house he rented for me and he visited thrice. He rented three shops for me too; the day he died, he promised to send me N5M. My son didn’t enjoy his life; he was always scared. He reported twice at the police station,” she said.
