- Suspect Asks Government To Execute Them
Oyo State Police Command has arrested three suspects in connection with the alleged murder and robbery of a family at Oloba village, Lagelu Local Government Area of Ibadan.
The suspects, identified as Hammed Akinbami, Akinbami Ojo and Padonu Edward, all residents of Oloba Village, were allegedly involved in an attack on the home of Ifeanyi Chukwu, his wife and their four children on September 22, 2026.
The police said the suspects invaded the residence armed with a locally made Dane gun, two cutlasses and a club.
During the attack, the suspects allegedly stole N200,000 in cash, a Boxer motorcycle, a Doma machine with chainsaw and a spraying machine.
Hammed Akinbami allegedly shot the husband, while Akinbami Ojo and Padonu Edward were accused of attacking the wife and hitting her on the head.
According to the police, the suspects later tied two of the children by their hands and legs before throwing them into a nearby river. The remaining members of the family were allegedly killed, with their bodies also dumped in the river.
The Command said detectives launched an investigation after receiving credible intelligence on October 2 concerning the incident.
The three suspects were subsequently arrested and allegedly confessed during interrogation to their involvement in the crime.
Speaking to journalists, Hammed said he took the other two suspects to Chukwu’s house because he had damaged his phone.
“I took a gun, and the others also carried weapons, and we went there. When we got to the house, his wife gave me ₦50,000. But after collecting the money, I killed one of the children and the husband.
“Ojo Akinbami killed the wife and one child, while Eddy More also killed another child. After killing them, we threw their bodies into the river.”
When asked what he felt should be their punishment, Hammed said they deserved to be killed.
