A bizarre story of a Husband and Wife reportedly killing another woman and offer to sell her head at 70,000 Naira which is equivalent to 1100 cedis has gone viral on Nigeria’s social media space.
A man identified as Kehinde Oladimeji, 41 and his 35-year-old wife Adejumoke Raji who were arrested over the weekend for being in possession of human parts at Leme area of Ogun State-Nigeria have narrated how they executed their victim.
Speaking to newsmen on Monday, February 14, at the Ogun State Police Headquarters, Oladimeji, recounted how his wife singlehandedly murdered and butchered her friend’s body.
According to him, his wife said she had offended her a long time ago. They later sold their victim’s head to a man identified as Oluomo in Ibadan, but got intercepted by the police.
In Oladimeji’s words:
“There was a day my wife invited her friend, a lady, to our house for a visit. The first time she came was on a Tuesday, she came that particular day and went back home.
But the second day she came, it was a Thursday. That day, my wife cooked noodles and eggs for the lady, which she ate. Later, the lady went into the bathroom to shower.
But when it was getting dark that day, I inquired from my wife when her friend would go home, but my wife said she was weak and would need to lie down to regain her strength. I sat in the backyard, but when I returned to the room, I realized my wife had killed her friend and dismembered her body.
When I asked her why she did it, she told me that the lady had offended her a long time ago. The person who bought the head came from Ibadan. His name is Oluomo,”
He further explained that his wife had overheard him on the phone when a friend from Ibadan called him to request a human head.
“I have a friend in Ibadan, who is popularly known as Omo Baale. He told me he needed a human head, but I told him I didn’t have such a connection or anybody who can help facilitate it.
My wife heard the discussion and asked me how much the man would pay for the human head. I told him he was ready to pay N70,000. I never knew my wife had made up her mind.
As you can see, I’m not a strong person. When the incident happened, I had wanted to kill myself, ”
