Information that reached us on Wednesday was that the Oyo State Police Command has arrested some suspected ritualists connected with serial killings in Akinyele community in Ibadan.

Special Adviser to Governor Seyi Makinde on Security, Mr Fatai Owoseni, said this during a town hall meeting organised by JAMZ 100.1 FM, Ibadan.

He also stated the suspected killers would soon be displayed by the Oyo State Police Command.

Owoseni stated, “I can assure you as I speak that the perpetrators of the killings in Akinyele have been apprehended.

“As of Tuesday, the criminals were apprehended and the Commissioner of Police would possibly hold a press conference today. But, I can specifically tell you that the person behind it has taken police to the ritualists and they are now behind the bars.”

He urged the people to be security conscious, adding that residents have roles to play in securing communities.

Reportedly, a 29-year old expectant mother, two undergraduates, and a young boy were killed by unknown assailants in their homes in the Akinyele area of Ibadan recently.
