Seven days after a suspect, Lekan Adekanbi, in the gruesome murder of a couple and their son escaped from custody, the Ogun State Police Command has yet to re-capture him.
Adekanbi was arrested following the killing of a former Central Bank of Nigeria worker, Kehinde Fatinoye; his wife, Bukola; and their son, Oreoluwa, after they returned from a crossover service on January 1, 2023.He, however, collapsed shortly after he was taken to Ibara police station.“At the hospital, Lekan pretended like he wanted to urinate and escaped,” a source said.
The police authorities subsequently removed the Divisional Police Officer in charge of Ibara, Abeokuta, CSP Bernard Ediagbonya, and one other for alleged negligence.
