He added that the suspect carried his corpse to a nearby bush, not knowing that someone saw her while doing so.

A statement by the command’s spokesman, Abimbola Oyeyemi, said, “On interrogation, the suspect claimed that the deceased was her longtime lover who used to pass nights at her place. But on that fateful day, he came as usual, but suddenly developed a strange illness in the night and before she could call for help, the man gave up the ghost. She further stated that she decided to dispose of the body out of fear.”

Oyeyemi said the Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Iliyasu, has however directed the Homicide Section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department to take over the case for proper investigation and possible prosecution of the suspect.
