The day of the murder, witnesses said they saw the shooter run away, hopping a fence bordering the Garden State Parkway. But months later, no motive has been revealed and the search for who pulled that trigger continues.
Over a month after New Jersey Councilwoman Eunice Dwumfour was murdered outside of her home, her family spoke publicly for the first time.Nicole Teliano used to play games on her phone in the Mayor’s Office at Sayreville Borough Hall while her mother tended to the tedious, often acrimonious task of serving in local government.
Dwumfour’s parents and new husband Peter Ezechukwu — who hoped to join his wife in the U.S. this spring but instead came for her funeral — are frustrated by the ongoing silence from officials. Neighbors saw a man argue with Dwumfour at her driver’s side window, then open fire before running toward the nearby Garden State Parkway and disappearing.
Most of Dwumfour’s time, though, seemed devoted to her church, which met several times a week above a Goodwill store in Newark. Dwumfour had previously stayed at a second Camelot unit that is listed as the business address for both church entities. Pastor Osi King, a regional church administrator linked to that unit, did not return calls seeking comment.
