Police arrest suspected killers of Ondo students

Punch

The Ondo State Police Command on Sunday said it had arrested three suspects in connection with the alleged kidnapping and killing of two female students of the Adeyemi College of Education, Ondo, for ritual purposes.
It was gathered that the two students, Oladepo Blessing and Oluwasemilore Mary, had earlier been declared missing, while their whereabouts was known.
The Public Relations Officer of the command, Mr. Femi Joseph, said one of the suspected ritual killers was arrested on Friday after participating in a robbery in Ondo.
His arrest, Joseph said, led to the arrest of the two other accomplices.
According to the PPRO, the suspects are John Adenikiri, also known as Emir; Fisayo Fasanu, aka Abore; and a herbalist, Alfa Abdurafiu.
Joseph explained that Adenikiri and Fasanu confessed that they sold the mutilated bodies of the victims to Abdurafiu, who used them for rituals.
The police spokesman noted that Adenikiri and Fasanu were arrested in Ondo town while Abdurafu was arrested in Ore, in the Odigbo Local Government Area of the state.
Joseph said, “We have arrested two suspects in connection with the kidnap and killing of  the victims for money ritual. One of the suspects was arrested during a robbery on Friday. After his arrest, he assisted us in arresting the other suspects.
“After a series of interrogation, the suspects confessed to mutilating the bodies of the victims for ritual purposes.
“In fact, the suspects took us to where they buried one of them. On getting there, we found the body already decomposing.”

Joseph, however, noted that the command had yet to confirm the identity of the decomposing victim, adding that the suspects would be charged to court at the completion of investigations.

To be eloquent is to speak well in a persuasive and deeply thoughtful way. Though it appears to come easily, eloquence does not often come naturally. The most talented speakers often have training in rhetoric and behavioral psychology. Here are 10 great examples of eloquent speakers who have made their mark on the world. 1. Martin Luther King, Jr “I Have a Dream” is perhaps the most powerful speech in American history. In poetic, unequivocal language, he explains how people can live up to their ideals for the sake of their children. 2. Abraham Lincoln In a speech only two minutes long, Lincoln explained the moral justification for the Civil War in his Gettysburg Address. 3. Winston Churchill In a few short years Churchill transformed himself from a burly, unemployed, failed novelist to a leader of the free world with ...
