20-Years-Old Lady Killed & Dumped inside Toilet by Her Boyfriend

A bricklayer, simply identified as Soji was arrested by the Police from Dugbe Division of Osogbo, Osun State capital over the murder of his 20-years-old girlfriend whom he dumped her remains inside a pit toilet. The residents of the Balogun Agoro area where the crime was committed on Thursday were shocked to discover the remains of the lady. A resident of the area, who declined identification, said residents of the area did not know that there was a corpse inside the toilet until policemen from the Dugbe Division came to evacuate the remains of the lady.

He said some residents had complained about the stench of decaying flesh from the toilet, adding that nobody thought it was a human being that was dumped there. The resident said Soji used to pour disinfectant into the toilet to suppress the stench, adding that nobody knew while he was doing it until the police came on Sunday and evacuated the body of the lady.

He added that the deceased used to come to stay with the suspect for weeks. He said, "Policemen came on Sunday and picked the lady’s body from the toilet. They broke the wall before they could remove her. The man’s name is Soji. The police initially arrested the wrong person because that one’s name is also Soji. But I learnt that they have released the innocent man." Another resident said nobody was sure if the suspect killed his girlfriend. He said, "The lady might have died and the man, out of fear, dumped her body inside the toilet."

An elder in the area, Alhaji Ajibade Adisa, told our correspondent that the suspect was still on the run. Efforts to get the reaction of the Police Public Relations Officer, Mrs. Folasade Odoro, were unsuccessful.
