The Kwara State Police Command has apprehended multiple individuals in connection to the murder of Awesu Mojisola, a 21-year-old final-year student from the Kwara State College of Health Technology.
The alarming discovery was made by Mr. Olorunoje, a local resident, who encountered the body while returning from the mosque.
As stated by Police Public Relations Officer DSP Toun Ejire-Adeyemi, a missing persons report was submitted by Miss Blessing O. on August 13, 2024.
Miss Blessing, who resides in the Gbomi area of Offa, Kwara State, reported that her roommate, Mojisola, had been unaccounted for since August 9, 2024.
The last communication from Miss Mojisola occurred after she received a call from Timileyin, who had introduced her to Mr. Adebayo Happiness, a student at Summit University.
Happiness allegedly invited Mojisola to a night party under the pretense of hiring her as his girlfriend for a fee of fifteen thousand naira (#15,000.00).
Upon her arrival in Ilorin, Mojisola expressed discomfort with the situation and noted that the promised party did not seem to be occurring.
Shortly thereafter, her phone became unresponsive, and all attempts by Miss Blessing to contact her were unsuccessful.
The police were notified of a case of culpable homicide on August 12, 2024, following the discovery of an unidentified female body at the refuse dump.
Detectives examined the scene and found blood traces near the victim’s ear. The body was subsequently taken to the General Hospital in Ilorin, where it was later confirmed to be Mojisola’s.
The Kwara State Police Command has since detained several suspects linked to the case, which has been referred to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) for an in-depth inquiry.
Commissioner of Police Victor Olaiya has committed to a comprehensive investigation to uncover the circumstances surrounding Mojisola’s death and to ensure accountability for those responsible.
