It would be recalled that some unknown gunmen broke into the residence of the former staff of CBN within the Ibara Government Reservation Area (GRA), Abeokuta, and murdered the parents of Oreoluwa.
According to rumors, the deceased Oreoluwa was kidnapped alongside their maid in his parent’s residence in Ogun State after Kehinde and Bukola Fatinoye were killed.
On Tuesday, January 3rd, 2022, some fishermen discovered the decomposing body of a young man later identified as Oreoluwa floating on the river.
According to Daily Trust, both hands of the deceased were tied with rope to his back, apparently before he was thrown into the river.
The fisherman, Idowu Taiwo who discovered the body said;
“On Monday, we heard that someone was thrown into this river, but this morning while we were preparing for work, the police approached us and pleaded with us to inform them any time we discover the body.
“But, this morning, around 7.30, we discovered the body while we were checking on our equipment in the river. I called someone to help us get the number of the PPRO to tell him that we have discovered the body.
“Not long after, the police came and we showed them the body after we had brought it to the river bank.”
