Agbado community, in Gbonyin local government area of Ekiti State has been thrown into confusion following report that a man simply identified as Toyin hanged the wife of another yet-to-be identified man in a farm settlement.
It was gathered from a resident of the community, Ajayi Seun, that the suspect had secured the service of his victim, said to be a commercial motorcyclist in the community to transport him to his farm located in front of the shoe making factory of Senator Gbenga Aluko, near Ode Ekiti.
Toyin, it was gathered, allegedly forcefully overpowered his victim, hanged him with a rope and dumped his corpse in an already dug grave in the farm.
He said, "Toyin was said to have gone to the terminal of the commercial motorbike operators in Agbado this morning and engaged the service of his victim to convey him to his farm which is located in front of the shoe making factory of the popular politician, Senator Gbenga Aluko.
"People who were at the factory told us that the bubble burst when they heard agonizing cry of Toyin's victim repeatedly and decided to check up what had happened. It was then they allegedly met Toyin dumping the corpse of his victim into the freshly dug hole, apprehended him and later handed him over to the nearest police station in the area.
The police had since morning arrested Toyin with the corpse and taken them away to their station. "
He added that the deceased's wife is heavily pregnant and reported at the station when informed about the tragedy that befell her husband.
When contacted on the tele phone for confirmation, the Police Public Relations Officer to the Ekiti State Command, Caleb Ikechukwu, said, "The matter is still under investigation, as soon as investigation is concluded, I will brief you in due cause."
