Two Kwara State Polytechnic Students Arrested for Robbery and Homicide During Intimate Encounter
The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has apprehended two female students, Adama Joseph and Favour Vandora, both of Kwara State Polytechnic. They stand accused of the robbery and alleged murder of a prominent Kwara socialite, Adeniyi Ojo, during an intimate encounter.
Earlier, it was reported that the Managing Director of a guest hotel in Ilorin, Kwara State, was discovered deceased under suspicious circumstances on September 29.
During a press conference in Abuja, the Force PRO, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, confirmed that the two suspects were arrested on October 6, 2023. He detailed that they had been involved in the robbery and fatal incident that led to the death of Mr. Adeniyi Ojo, who was the son of Chief Emmanuel Ojo, a well-known figure in Ilorin.
Adejobi explained, “Through meticulous investigative work, our officers were able to track and apprehend these suspects in Mowe Ibafo, Ogun State. In a tragic incident, the duo tied the deceased under the guise of having a sexual encounter and demanded money from him. But when he was not forthcoming, they resorted to drugging and suffocating him, leading to his untimely demise.”
He further noted that the suspects have been processed and will be taken to court soon. Adejobi affirmed the police force’s commitment to ensuring public safety.
One of the suspects, Adanma Joseph, corroborated the police’s account of the incident when speaking to the press. She revealed that she and the deceased had a prior sexual relationship. On the day in question, the deceased had expressed interest in a threesome with her and her friend, Favour Vandora. Their intention was to steal from him.
Adama shared that they drugged the deceased and took his phone and other belongings, only to later discover that he had died. She explained, “We didn’t plan to kill him. On that particular day, we went with the intention to steal from him, so we told him that we wanted to do BDSM, and he agreed to have a threesome with me and my friend (Oreoluwa). After Oreoluwa tied his hands and legs, I tried to gag his mouth, but he refused, and I stopped. So, when we couldn’t find any money in his pocket, my friend took his phone and showed it to his face to open it with facial lock, but he started shouting, and he loosened one of the ropes on his hands, and started hitting my friend. We put Refnol (Rohypnol) in his mouth. So, in a bid to stop him from making noise, my friend put a pillow over his face, and when he went silent, we told him that we were leaving because we thought he was pretending, but he didn’t respond, so we left. I touched him with a dead knife used for cutting cake, but he didn’t bleed, as I never meant to stab him or hurt him. We only wanted to take his money. We didn’t know he died until when the police arrested us in Ogun State. We only took his phone, the knife, and the ropes with us.”
