Group of suspected gang believed to be members of a cult, said to be
in their late 20s, have allegedly killed one Abdulrahman Kayode at a
residence in the Muyideen Kulende area of Ilorin, Kwara State.
A source learnt the cultists had trailed a lady, Murisade Adebanji, to
the building over a disagreement between them.
A source learnt that the cutlass-wielding bandits pounced on Kayode,
when he cautioned them to stop harassing their target who was sitting
beside him.
A source was told that the perceived intrusion did not go down well
with the assailants as they severally stabbed the deceased until he
gave up the ghost at about 10.30pm on March 13. Adebanji reportedly
panicked and fled the scene.
Firstclass newsline gathered that two members of the gang, Abdulazeez
Asaju, a student, and Sodiq Olabanji, were arrested after Adebanji's
sister, Grace, reported the incident at the Police Division E,
Kulende.
Firstclass newsline gathered that suspects are members of Alora
confraternity. A locally-made pistol with live cartridges, a knife and
an axe were said to have been recovered from the duo.
The cultists were charged with criminal conspiracy and homicide by the
police when they appeared before the Ilorin Magistrates' Courts.
The charges read in part, "That you, Abdulazeez Asaju and Sodiq
Olabanji, on March 3, 2015, at about 10.30pm, based on information
received at the Division E, Kulende from one Grace Olabanji of the
Sango area, Ilorin, that some miscreants came to Green House along
Muyideen-Kulende and harassed Murisade Adebanji, who ran away in fear.
"That you, and other members, now at large, criminally conspired and
turned violence against Abdulrahman Kayode and stabbed him to death.
"That you are members of Alora cult and when search was conducted on
you, one locally-made pistol with live cartridges, one knife and a
battle axe, which was used in committing the crime, were recovered
from you and thereby committed offences contrary to sections 97 and
224 of Penal Code."
The judge, Mr. Shuaib Saliu, did not take the defendants' plea as he
ordered that they be remanded in custody pending the the Directorate
of Public Prosecutions' advise.
Firstclass newsline learnt that the case was adjourned till April 2, 2015.
