Iniubong Umoren, the job seeker lured from Twitter and brutally murdered has been laid to rest in her family compound in Akwa Ibom.
It all began when the University of Uyo graduate tweeted in search of a job oppurtunity. She was lured by Uduak Friday Akpan who replied the tweet with a phony job opening.
#AkwaIbomTwitter please I'm really in need of a job, something to do to keep mind and soul together while contributing dutifully to the organisation. My location is Uyo, I'm creative, really good in thinking ctitically and most importantly a fast learner. CV available on request.

The suspect, Uduak Friday Akpan, was arrested after social media users raised alarm about her disappearance after meeting him for the job. He deleted his tweet but was found out using his digital footprints.
Twitter users circulated his name and photo online as the prime suspect, days later, the Akwa Ibom police command made a press statement saying he had been arrested and the remains of Ini Umoren exhumed from a shallow grave where he buried her.
The deceased has been laid to rest amid tears.
