The police
commissioner in Osun State, Babatunde Kokumo, led a team of officers today to
exhume the decomposing body of the female LASU student, Favour Daley-Oladele
that was allegedly murdered by Owolabi Adeeko, her boyfriend, for money
rituals.
Recall that Owolabi was arrested by the police in December 2019 for allegedly luring Favour to a church in Ikoyi-ile, where she was killed to use her body parts for money rituals. Owolabi confessed that her breast, heart, and other vital organs were removed to prepare a concoction by Pastor Segun Phillip of the Cherubim and Seraphim Church, Solution Chapel.
However, the concoction was reportedly eaten by Mrs. Adeeko and his son. The three suspects have so far been arrested by the police and are being interrogated.
Also, the police commissioner led a team of homicide expert to the church where the body of late Favour was buried in a shallow grave. Her body has so far been exhumed and has been taken for an autopsy.
Kokumo said;
''We are all
aware of the gruesome killing of a student of LASU. The killing has been traced
to Ikoyi -Ile. In furtherance of the investigation started by the Ogun State
command. We have brought our homicide experts to exhume and help in the
furtherance of the investigations started by the Ogun State police command to
prosecute the suspects.
It is a
gruesome murder and the whole thing is quite horrible. We will not fold our
arms and watch lawless citizens take laws into their hands, destroying peoples’
lives.
We have been
informed that we have many churches in this community. It is our responsibility
to conduct our investigation. What we are doing is intelligence policing driven
by the people's needs. If the communities are making us know that they are no
longer comfortable with the number of churches in the community or the calibre
of such people running the churches then it becomes our responsibility to
conduct an investigation on their activities and check them.
My advice is
that parents have a lot of roles to play. We have a lot of children in schools;
the parents owe them the responsibility to let them know that apart from their
academic pursuit they must see to their moral training. It is only when the two
are well combined that you can have a complete human being. They should see to
the peer group they belong''
