The Ogun State Police Command have arrested three suspects for allegedly killing a 400-level student of Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU), Ago-Iwoye, in Ogun State.

The suspects – Idowu Ayodele, 53, Segun Ogunsanwo, 53, and Akeem Salisu, 55, – allegedly killed one Ahmed Obisanwo on August 8, 2019.

The Commissioner of Police, Bashir Makama, said the suspects invaded a hotel in Ijebu-Igbo on the fateful day and robbed people of their valuables during the attack.

The suspects also seized two young men while the robbery lasted.

Makama said:

“These suspects went into a hotel and told everyone to lie down, dispossessing them of their valuables. They seized two people and didn’t return them. After a while, one of them came back and said he had escaped..

When we asked him about the second person he was abducted with, he said, he was dead. On further interrogation, they said the other person that was taken had been killed.

They said he had been thrown into a river. We asked them to identify the river so we can go there and conduct a search and recover his remains.”

The Command also recovered guns from the suspects who claimed to be members of the local community Vigilante group.
