These days, being one’s church member is no longer enough to feel safe with them, otherwise, 18 year old Christiana Idowu would still be alive today. But no; she was lured and killed by 23-year-old philosophy student at Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ayomide Adeleye, incidentally her church member. ...READ THE FULL STORY FROM SOURCE ↔️
The question is, why would Adeleye, now in custody at the Lagos State Police Command Tactical Unit in Ikeja, kill his church member?
“I killed her because I had financial problems,” he stated
“She came to our house around 5pm on the day of the incident and asked me to repair her phone,” Adeleye recounted.
“I just grabbed her, applied pressure.
“She started struggling. She didn’t really shout because I already suppressed her. I then squeezed her throat, and she gave up.”
Having fulfilled his mission, the now began to think of how to dispose of the body, according to account.
The idea of a shallow grave behind his compound appealed to him, and he immediately set to work, but could not finish it same day.
“By 4 am the following day, I woke up, I continued digging. Honestly, I did not close my eyes till daybreak,”
Idowu’s death was not an end in itself, but perpetrated to achieve something else.
That next target was ransom, even on a family friend that had already been killed in a most gruesome manner.
Adeleye said he contacted Idowu’s mother, demanding ransom.
“The first thing I said to her was, ‘Hello, madam, we have your daughter,’” he said, and ended up demanding N3million.
“I know for a fact that she didn’t have three million. Even if she did not have that amount, I was ready to collect any amount because I desperately needed money no matter the amount.
“After going back and forth with her, she said she was able to get N350, 000.00 and I gave her a Sporty Bet account to pay the money in order to avoid being traced.”
Adeleye still later demanded for extra N10,000, which the mother had said was all she had left, all these before the hand of justice caught up with him.
“If I had not uploaded my NIN, it would just be an empty account,” he explained, revealing how his attempt to cover his tracks ultimately led to his arrest.

“But the moment I uploaded my NIN, all my personal details, my location, my address, my name, everything, was already on the Sporty Bet. The girl’s phone was also with me, they could have traced the location of the phone, that was how they got my location,” he added.
“I regret that I killed her because my mum and her mum were friends.”
“I don’t deserve any mercy for what I have done. At the same time, I ask God to forgive me. What I did was totally wrong and I regret it.
“I feel remorseful for what I have done. If there’s any way I could be given a second chance, I want to be given one but I deserve death, honestly. I have been planning to kill myself. While I was in the guard room, I tried to look for any sharp object to cut myself so that I would bleed to death”, he confessed to Vanguard..…For More READ THE FULL STORY▶▶
