Ritual: A missing girl found dead

On monday 10th of February2025, a lawal hafsoh yetunde went missing. According to reports, she was attending a naming ceremony when she received a call from a friend. She dropped her food to answer the call and then left. Since then, we’ve been searching for her everywhere, but no one knew her whereabouts.

“The suspect was arrested, but initially denied knowledge of the lady’s whereabouts. However, when the police searched his house, he confessed that the lady was in his area and had died from an asthma attack after he called her to come over.

“Upon further investigation, the police found the lady’s body, dismembered and hidden in a bowl, along with the equipment used to dismember her. The suspect is now at the police headquarters in Ilorin.

According to the suspect, they met on Facebook, where he obtained her phone number. He then called her, inviting her to come over.

“Disturbingly, evidence found in the suspect’s house suggests this may not be his first offense. A table in his room appeared to be equipped with tools used to dismember bodies.

“The case is currently under investigation at the Kwara State Police Headquarters. As more information becomes available, I will provide updates, including pictorial and video evidence. In due time, I will share pictures of the suspect and other relevant evidence.

Interestingly, the suspect who committed the heinous crime is reportedly the son of a well-known cleric from Isalekoto, Ilorin.
