After negotiations, both parties agreed on a price and the agreement was drafted by Odunukwe’s lawyer. His lawyer suggested going with him to sign the paper works but he turned them down saying he also had a meeting at Ikoyi club before meeting the land buyers. He left for that meeting and was never seen again.
