Court arraigns “killer boyfriend” of former Ondo Deputy Governor’s daughter
Akure Chief Magistrate Court has remanded 27- year-old Seidu-Shakiru Adeyemi in Olokuta prison for allegedly killing his 25-year-old girlfriend, Khadijat Oluboyo.
Adeyemi was handcuffed to the court on Monday by armed officers from the Ondo State Police Command.
Khadijat, the daughter of a former deputy governor of Ondo State, Alhaji Lasisi Oluboyo, was a final year student of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko.
She was found dead in her boyfriend’s house on July 2.
The Chief Magistrate, Mrs Victoria Bob-Manuel, ordered the remand of the accused in prison custody pending the receipt of legal advice from the State Director of Public Prosecution.
Bob-Manuel ordered that the original copy of the case file be sent to the State Chief Registrar for safe keeping.
Earlier, the prosecutor, Sgt. Mary Adebayo, had told the court that the accused person and others at large conspired together to strangulate Khadijat to death and buried her in his room.
Adeyemi has been charged on a two-count charge of conspiracy and murder.
