Robbers break into Michael Ibru’s tomb to steal gold casket

There was mild pandemonium in Agbarha-Otor, Delta State, last Friday, after some bandits invaded the tomb of late business mogul, Olorogun Michael Ibru, to steal the gold casket used to bury him.

The grave break-in was discovered in the early hours of Friday August 9, and this led to restriction of movement in the Delta Community from 12am.

The President General of the community and retired university don, Prof Sam Ibodje, said the matter has been reported at the Ughelli ‘B’ Division police station. 

The tomb raiders were unsuccessful in the attempt after allegedly pouring acid on the grave which is located behind the Ibru Clinic, Vanguard reported.
