Nurud Offeh, a Science Teacher at St. Patrick’s Preparatory and a friend of Jennifer, told Dakojom Police officers that, Jennifer was being physically abused by her boyfriend Adu James, and that was the main reason she wanted to go spend the vacation with her parents so she could decide on what to do.
