This pressure allegedly led Sadiq to invite Bello to his house, where he carried out the heinous act.

Unable to refund the payment on time, Sadiq allegedly hired two assassins to help kill his friend.

Upon arrival at Bello's house, the friend was attacked with a pestle, resulting in his skull being smashed, and his life cut short.
