A former deputy Governor of Ondo State, South-West Nigheria, Lasisi Oluboyo, has cried out that his late daughter, Adenike, was used for ritual.
The decomposing body of the student at the Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko, Ondo State, was found in the room of her boyfriend, Adeyemi Alao, on Sunday.
Alao, alias QS, according to the police, is a member of a cybercrime gang suspected of using voodoo for their operations.
Oluboyo said the suspect killed and buried his daughter in his room and put his mattress on the grave.
“Somebody called us that she was missing on Monday, July 2, 2018, and we got in touch with her friends in the school.
“I had sent her money on previous Friday; the usual thing is that when she got bank alert, she would call me back to thank me. But I did not get any response from her that day.
“On Monday, we called her number and we did not get through. We got a text that the phone was not good and that she would call back,” the former deputy governor said.
Lasisi said his family later organised a special prayer which made the suspect confess to his sister.
He said he wanted Alao to face the wrath of the law to serve as a deterrent to others.
