A police officer who is privy to the incident and spoke on condition of anonymity, said;
‘’The first suspect was tracked to Idanre, where the driver was said to have fled while the second android phone was tracked to Akure.
One of the suspects said the three of them (Driver, P/A and another friend) went to their late boss’ house who cooked for them on that fateful Thursday and after eating the delicious food they descended on her, gagged her mouth and used two big cutlasses they brought along to cut her head while she was pleading to them to spare her life.
The suspect said the generator was on between 6pm and 7 pm and the deafening noise of the generator did not let others know.
They said they covered the deceased’s head with duvet and continued hitting her head, they later cut her wrist and leg. Not only this, the suspect said the other two were with knives started stabbing her stomach, chest and breasts”
Her intestines were said to have come out while the body was full of scars. The suspects tried to cover their tracks and wanted people to believe it was a fire accident, went to the kitchen and lit the gas with matches then opened the gas from the cylinder and emptied the gas in order to make it explode.
They then covered it with rubber clothes to make it burn the whole house so that people would think it was caused by gas explosion from the kitchen.
But the gas cylinder did not explode as they planned. They then took her ATM cards and two Android phones and fled the scene.
Speaking on the m$rder of the caterer, her younger brother, Adebola Oyeneye, said;
” I was the one who took the body to the mortuary, they burnt part of the stomach.
Also speaking, the deceased’s husband, Dele Adene said that the autopsy would be done later. The distraught husband confirmed that the killers used knives to stab her severely.
” I went with the police to the house last Friday looking for the knives they used, because one of them confessed that they used knives to stab her and when one broke, they picked another one, maybe the knife had been buried in her stomach, it’s when the autopsy is done that we would know”
