She said the suspect told her that he was in the neighborhood for a burial ceremony and that he wanted to use the items to entertain his friends before the event commenced.

“I provided the items for him and I was about to pack them inside a polythene bag when he demanded bottles of water.

“As I went back inside to get the water, he stepped inside the shop and picked up the bag containing my money.

“When I brought the water out, he asked me to calculate the items and said that he wanted to get a bottle of groundnuts from the nearby shop.

“When he said he was going, it was then I checked for the bag and behold it was not there.
