Family Of 22-year-old lady murdered in Ogun denies ever dropping case against killer.

The family of Kabirat Sobola, a 22-year-old woman who was allegedly murdered by her boyfriend, denies that they did not file charges against their daughter’s alleged killer.

The woman was discovered dead in her room, her body covered with knife wounds to various portions of her body, including her neck.

Following the event, the police detained one Akeem Kabiru, the deceased’s boyfriend, after he was thought to have been involved in the woman’s murder.

However, the family asserted that more suspected accomplices of the daughter’s murderer had not yet been apprehended by authorities.

Kehinde Sobola, a family spokesman, said in Abeokuta that three of the young woman’s killers had been freed by the police.

Sobola, who is the twin brother of the deceased’s father, claimed to have been a member of the squad that found the girl’s body in her room.

He asserted that Akeem Kabiru, his 26-year-old partner, had more accomplices who were involved in the murder case and that he was being held by police and lodged in a jail.

He claimed that the room where the corpse was found contained both the knife and the pillow that were used to kill the woman.

According to Sobola, the police summoned Kabirat’s buddies Fola and Akeem to provide a statement regarding the woman’s death because they were suspected in the killing.

He claimed that Fola, who had previously been arrested, was later released surprised the family.

He also took issue with the fact that the herbalist and the cleric who the key suspect allegedly gave the deceased’s photo to had not been detained.

Sobola claimed that he was there at the police station when the main suspect admitted to sending the deceased’s photo to a herbalist and an Alfa (an Islamic cleric).

“We want the government to intervene and ensure that justice is served and necessary investigations are done. Those responsible for Kabirat’s death be brought to justice.”

Abimbola Oyeyemi, the state’s police public relations officer, calmed the family’s fears when she was contacted.

He said that the homicide division had taken charge of the situation and that the suspect had been remanded in custody.

Yet the PPRO advised the family not to blame innocent people in the murder case.

He said, “We have not released any suspect. The suspect had been in the correctional centre. The matter is a murder case.

“The case is a serious one. We cannot just arrest anyone, because it will take a long time for an innocent person to prove himself.”
