Man Murders Two Nieces In Ogun, Blames Devil
Tragedy struck in Abeokuta, Ogun State, on Saturday, 5th August, when a man identified as Taye Agbaje allegedly killed his younger brother’s two children inside a bush in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital.
It was gathered that on that fateful day, the man, Taye, went to his sibling’s house at Kemta Abata in Abeokuta, took away the two girls on his bike and later murdered them with a cutlass.
It was gathered that the father of the children, Idowu Agbaje, was not at home when Taye came for the kids, so when he came back in the evening, he started searching for them.
He alerted members of the community, who told him they saw the two girls on his brother’s motorcycle during the day.
Residents of Kemta Abata expressed shock over the incident, saying the suspect does not live within the community.
A source in the community, who pleaded anonymity, explained that Taye is currently in police custody.
“When Taye was asked about the girls, he denied knowing about their whereabouts. Members of the community said they saw him conveying the girls, yet he said he only took them to the market.
“He was taken to Kemta police division, where he later confessed to have killed his nieces. Taye took the police to the bush where he slit his nieces throats and left the bodies..
“We all saw the bodies where he killed them. Police have evacuated the corpses to the mortuary. Taye did not give any particular reason for his action, he only said the mother of the kids had spiritually taken his glory for her husband. This is very shocking,” the source narrated.
The Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, Omolola Odutola, confirmed the incident, describing the it as incomprehensible.
The PPRO expressed surprise that the suspect did not show any remorse when he was being interrogated by the police, but was just blaming satan for the act.
“The suspect didn’t give any specific reason why he killed his brother’s children. There was no any sign of remorse. He’s just blaming satan, satan; and that does not exist in law,” Odutola said.
The police spokesperson promised to give further details about the incident soon.
