22-year-old Oweniwe Chukwudi (pictured)
who has been arrested in connection with the
murder of his girlfriend, Adeyeye Nifemi, says
he killed her for the fun of it and not for
rituals as being speculated.
Chukwudi, who is a National Diploma student
of the Rufus Giwa Polytechnic, Owo, Ondo
State, denied removing body parts of the
deceased after he murdered her.
“I did not remove any part of her
body; I only killed her for the fun of it.
I made love with her in the bush
before killing her. I am not a cultist. It
was when I killed her that I realised I
made a big mistake and I wept
bitterly”he said when interrogated
Ondo state commissioner of Police, Hilda
Harrison, who paraded the suspect, said
investigations carried out so far shows that
Chukwudi whose parents are cassava
farmers in Ogbese area of the state, had
tricked his girlfriend to Ayede Ogbese, about
10 to 15 kilometres away from their campus
where he stabbed her. He left her in the
bush, thinking she was dead but on his
return the next day to remove some of her
body parts, he saw that she was still alive.
While pretending to help her, the suspect
reportedly took her to a camp close to a
filling station in Ilu Abo, where he strangled
her again. When she didn’t die, he reportedly
smashed her head with stones until she died.
Acting on available intelligence, he was
arrested and during interrogation, confessed
to committing the crime. He would be
charged to court after investigations is
concluded. Lindaikeji
