Two commercial sex workers have been arrested by Men of the Nigerian
Police Force, Ogun State for allegedly killing a customer identified as
Adeyinka Olayinka.
The incident occurred at KS Hotel, Ifo on Tuesday.
According to the police, Kudirat Raji alias Angela and Esther Basiru
were said to have stabbed Olayinka with a broken bottle during an
argument.
Spokesman for the command, Abimbola Oyeyemi, an Assistant
Superintendent (ASP) said the victim contracted Raji for the night but
the duo had an argument over the price.
Oyeyemi said:
“The victim was
supervising an ongoing construction work on his property and so he spent
the night at the hotel. He contracted Kudirat Raji to pass the night
with him on an agreed amount but reneged on their agreement.“His refusal to pay the agreed amount led to a hot argument between
them. While the argument was going on, Esther Basiru, a friend to Angela
broke a bottle and injured the deceased’s friend who was at the scene.“Angela used the broken part of the bottle to stab the deceased on
the armpit thereby cutting one of his nerves, consequent upon which he
bled to death.“The manager of the hotel alerted the police at Ifo and the DPO, CSP
Anthony Haruna led his men to the scene and arrested the two suspects.“The Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Iliyasu has ordered the transfer
of the case to Homicide section of the State Criminal Investigation and
Intelligence Department (SCIID) for discrete investigation and possible
prosecution of the suspects.”
