Police Arrests a Pastor For Allegedly Dealing With Human Skull

 

The police in Ogun on Tuesday paraded Pastor Michael Oyewole (29) and Mathew Akiode (30) at the command’s headquarters Eleweran, for allegedly exhuming human skull in Sabo, Abeokuta. The state Commissioner of Police, Ikemefuna Okoye, told journalists that Akiode was caught committing the offence in the midnight.

Okoye added that after Akiode’s arrest, the suspect confessed that he was sent to get the skull by the pastor. He said, “We got information about somebody who was digging a grave and we swung into action. He did not know he was being watched while removing the corpse. “We apprehended him immediately he severed the head from the body. He told us that it was one Pastor Oyewole that sent him.“

The police commissioner said Oyewole was subsequently arrested.Okoye said the two suspects would be charged to court after the conclusion of investigations. Akiode, who confessed to committing the crime said he was pushed into it by economic hardship.
“I used to work on his (pastor’s) site but he said I would make more money if I could get him human skull. So, I felt it was an easy way of making money and that was why I did it.

“I’m surprised at his denial. He taught me how to go about it,” Akiode said.
But Oyewole denied sending the suspect on such a mission. “I am a man of God and pastor. I heal people in God’s name and not with human skull. He is just telling lies and I don’t know what I have done to him. Only God can save me now,” Oyewole said.
Meanwhile, the FCT police command has recovered 17 exotic cars from two car-snatching syndicates in Abuja.

Shinaba advised car owners to be wary of car thieves and to be conscious of where they parked their vehicle. Fourteen cars were recovered from one Promise Okafor,who claimed to be a lawyer and car dealer. Paraded along Okafor were Michael Nweke, Chimezie Emanini, Amarachi Eneh and John Nuhu. Okafor claimed he did not know the vehicles were stolen, insisting that he bought them from Emanini when he was convinced that they were genuine. He said, “I am a lawyer and also a car dealer. I import cars and also sell.I bought a Honda Accord from Chimezie when he showed me documents which proved that the car was genuine.”
Okafor however failed to respond to questions on how he came about the other vehicles that were recovered from him.

Man in police net for beheading wife for rituals.

The Ekiti State Police Command has detained Mr. Nnaefenwa Lucky, in connection with the beheading of his wife, Bose.

The headless remains of Bose, 40, who was suspected to have been killed for ritual purposes, were discovered in the bush by her husband who had asked her to bring food to him.

It was gathered that the deceased, who had four children, had prepared the food as instructed by her husband and was on the way to the farm to give it to him when she was attacked and decapitated by yet to be identified persons.

Residents told journalists who visited the area that Bose's attackers severed her head and neck, chopped off her arms and cut some flesh from her buttocks.

This discovery obviously made some residents of the town to believe that the deceased was murdered for rituals.

The Chairman of Urhobo community in Aramoko-Ekiti, Chief Samuel Okorefe, told journalists that he was told that Bose's husband came to town to call for help after the murder.

Okorefe said the deceased's husband told the people that he found his wife along the bush path where she was beheaded.

The community leader stated that he and some other people reported the case at the police station in the town and to the Alara of Aramoko, Oba Olu Adeyemi.

He added that the police had deposited Bose's remains at the Aramoko General Hospital mortuary.

The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Mr. Victor Babayemi, told SUNDAY PUNCH that it was too early to conclude that Lucky killed his wife.

The PRO said, "We are aware of the allegation against the husband. The man is still with us but we don't want to jump into conclusions. He told us that he asked his wife to bring food to him on the farm and that he later found her dead along the footpath. We can't say what actually happened until we are through with our investigations."
