Police Recover 2-Yr-Old Boy’s Severed Head In Ibadan

The Police in Ogun State have found the head of a two-year-old boy beheaded in Ofada town in Obafemi/Owode local government area of Ogun State.

It was reported last week Thursday of how a suspected ritualist identified as ‎Mamodu Bashir Ibrahim, raped the mother of his victim in the bush where she had gone to urinate, thereafter cutting off the head of her baby she strapped to her back.

Ibrahim who escaped the scene immediately after committing the horrible crime was later arrested by detectives attached to the Department of Criminal Investigation, Eleweran,  Abeokuta where he confessed to the crime claiming he had sold the head of the boy to a woman in Ibadan.‎

The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Muyiwa Adejobi, who confirmed the discovery of the baby's head in a statement said the severed head of the boy was recovered in Ibadan.

He  said: “The suspect took the investigation team to Mokola area of Ibadan, Oyo State where the head was recovered in a bag in the bush, Tuesday.

“The Commissioner of Police, Ogun State, Mr Ikemefuna Okoye, has, however, directed the detectives to intensify efforts to uncover the buyers and those who engage in such dirty deals in our society.”
