Reacting to his statement on Facebook, some Nigerians stated that there is more to his story while others found his constant use of ‘bayii’ annoying.
One said: “Simple case. How did she pay her rent…Cash or transfer? If transfer, log a police case and trace her next of kin through BVN.”
Another netizen queried his usage of ‘bayii’ in the story.
“Please what is the constant use of Bayii in all the sentences , is it some kind of incantation?”
In the same vein, @ralph13 said, “What’s this bayii and akwa ibom, can’t you make your statement without these terms?
“At a point, I thought Bayii was the name of the Akwa Ibom lady’s Bini boyfriend that travelled to the northern part of Ghana bayii🙄🙄🙄🙄”
A netizen who commented anonymously wrote: “I read this and to me this guy is innocent. That’s just my hunch and he has tried. Although I don’t know the bayii but I am guessing it is something he uses a lot I his sentences especially when frustrated. The guy is frustrated.
“He said he was at the police station. My theory is the phone died but was not passworded or he figured out the password. He likely meant that when he said he broke into the phone. He can get guys who fit do that. Although it is wrong but the guy is desperate.
“He is coming online now because after finally entering the girls phone they still did not find family members to call. But my thing now is that after explaining to the police the police is meant to take over the corpse. It should not be his responsibility again.
“Although again my theory is except you are a big man that police cannot tax or you have money to pay and they move the body, they will use you to chop. They must have told him to bring money so they move it and maybe is dry. So he is desperately looking for family members.
“Lots of people don’t even bother getting references in those furnished rooms to let it is almost like a short stay. Most girls use those rooms for you know what. Evidenced when he asked he what she does.
“So we can’t really blame him that she didn’t provide all her details. And as he said she just moved in there. He has carried for this one oh until he provides a family member police will hold him. Last last he may have to bury her.”
@hman said Osita is not telling the whole truth. “Haa..wahala be like zeeworld story o,e no dey ever clear or end.Abi you just woke up one morning to write this tales by the moonlight story.Oga,better say the truth because this your story is not storying Bayii”
