The deceased, a guard, was murdered by unknown assailants in what residents believe is meant to intimidate a competitor.

The owner of the business which the deceased was guarding said she had received leaflets warning her to relocate.

“Few months ago, we found three letters dropped at my shop and two yards that cell timber, telling us to leave this place or they will ‘take one head,” the business woman said.

Police are yet to arrest those behind the murder.
