Segun Taiwo just wanted to have a nice time when his wife travelled out of town October 31.
So the 48-year-old butcher invited Abimbola Olusola, his woman friend, a 50-year-old, to his house at Obada Oko.
Whatever happened in bed that Sunday night, Wosila didn’t survive it. And Taiwo claimed what he did thereafter was knee-jerk.
According to him, Bimbola showed some signs of illness and died, after they had sex, around 3am.
Then he took her corpse in his car, drove to Abeokuta, and deposited it by the roadside.
Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, Abimbola Oyeyemi, told newsmen Monday that Taiwo was arrested following information received at Lafenwa police division that the corpse of the woman was seen by the roadside at Aro area of Abeokuta.
“The CSP Femi Olabode led homicide section had embarked on a technical and intelligence based investigation to unravel the mystery behind the death of the deceased; the investigation eventually led them to Obada Oko area, where the suspect is living and he was arrested,” he said.
“On interrogation, the suspect first denied knowing the deceased, but when evidence linking him with the deceased was tabled before him, he was left with no other alternative than to confess.”
Taiwo stated further that he took the corpse in his car and drove it to Aro area where he dumped it, out of fear.
CP Lanre Bankole, while commending his men for the high level of professionalism displayed in carrying out the investigation, directed that the suspect be charged to court as soon as investigation is concluded.
