Oreneye, who confessed that he shot and killed Shakiru at Library Junction, Ilaro, on 12th February 2018 in a reprisal, said he later sold the deceased’s two palms to one Jimoh, a herbalist.

He said,

“It is true that I shot and killed Shakiru because he had killed three members of our (Aiye) cult group.

“Again, he had made attempts on my life on three occasions but I was able to escape, and I had to strike before he would strike.”

Iliyasu told journalists that the suspect was arrested at a drinking joint in Oke Ilewo, Abeokuta.
