Tears as 14-year-old boy killed in Ikorodu

…Organs missing

The Anifowose family of Ikorodu are grieving the loss of their son, Kudus, a JSS 1 student who was declared missing since on 14th of October. His dismembered body was found yesterday at a compound in Ikorodu.

A 17-year-old boy and his grandmother were arrested by the police. Kudus’ body was discovered in an unoccupied building near his friend’s compound, but the friend has denied any involvement. The grandmother has since been released by the police.

Family members are alleging ritual killing, calling on the police high authority to investigate the matter properly.

“The way things are going, we suspect that some people in high places could be involved in this killing. When the compound was sealed by the police, some people came in company of the boy’s grandmother saying they want to take certificate from the compound. Thanks to the OPC that refused them entry. We strongly suspect that they attempted to come in to clean their mess. We are not going to take this lying down. This is one killing too many,’ Mr Anifowose, father to late Kudus said.
