Monday 22 November 2021 : The wife of Ramon Adedoyin, the owner of Hilton Hotel and Resort, Ile Ife, in Osun State, has denied the allegations of ritual killing against her husband.
Iyabo Adedoyin told newsmen  that her husband is a patriotic Nigerian and not an evildoer.
“Adedoyin knows nothing about this incident, truly the man died at the hotel and the police have commenced investigation into the matter.
“Some said my husband ran away, that is not true, my husband never ran anywhere. All this that is happening is just a test of our faith as believers.
“All that is hidden is glaring before the almighty, but before I say anything, I must say that I really sympathize with the family of the deceased, but those peddling lies about my husband are only being pained by the unfortunate incident but in all, I really really sympathize with the family of the deceased especially his wife.”

Ms Opalola also said after the matter was received at the SCID, detectives swung into action and arrested six suspects in connection with the matter.
Residents around the hotel who spoke with newsmen said the police arrested the six suspects and the owner of the hotel after they allegedly buried Mr Adegoke when he was discovered dead.
A resident, who identified himself as Rasheed, said, “The police arrested all of them because they found out that they secretly buried the deceased at a location not too far from the hotel.
“That was what we were told, ask anybody around here, they will tell you the same thing.”
Our reporter who visited the hotel was not allowed into the hotel as a man in a white shirt kept repeating, “we are not working presently.”
