Lovers nabbed with human parts in Ogun [PHOTOS]

Earlier today, operatives of Ogun State Police Command captured one Kehinde Oladimeji 43years, and his wife Adejumoke Raji 35, for being in possession of fresh different human parts, TopNaija reports.

The remorseful looking couple who are residents of no.72 MKO Abiola way, Leme Abeokuta, were arrested following a report lodged at Kemta Divisional Headquarters by one chief Moshood Ogunwolu, the Baale of Leme Community who reported that one Pastor Adisa Olarewaju who is a co-tenant with the suspects informed him of offensive odours coming out from the room of the suspects.

Upon the complaint, the DPO Kemta Division, CSP Adeniyi Adekunle quickly led his detectives to the scene where a search was conducted. On searching the room, a plastic bowl containing fresh different parts of a human being was discovered in the room, and the couple were promptly arrested.

On interrogation, the suspects confessed they were herbalists and that the human parts comprising of hands, breasts and other parts were given to them by one Michael who they claimed resided in Adatan area of Abeokuta. All efforts to locate the said Michael proved abortive as the suspects could not locate his house.

A few weeks ago, a dismembered body of an unknown person was found in a swamp area at Leme area of Abeokuta.

Confirming the arrest, the spokesperson of the state police command, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, said the state commissioner of police, CP Lanre Bankole has ordered the immediate transfer of the suspects to Homicide Section of the state criminal investigation and Intelligence Department for discreet investigation.

He added that the CP has vowed that anyone who is directly or indirectly involved in the crime would be brought to book to serve as a deterrent to others.

Indeed, there is nothing wrong with being rich to live well and comfortably. The problem is the greed of situating money as the sole object of its own enterprise. Ideally, the only sustainable modern money ‘ritual’ is knowledge and smart hard work to meet societal needs. That is what got today’s world-richest to the peak of fame. Service to humanity, not the buffoonery of the best-forgotten past. If it were not so, herbalists should be on Forbes’ rating of the world richest.

Nigeria has enormous challenges that are waiting for a solution from clear-headed and well-educated citizens.
