The Oyo State Criminal Investigation Department has detained three Islamic clerics on suspicion of beheading a middle-aged man in the state capital of Ibadan.
It was learned that the victim was enticed to the location of his purported murder by a false impression of being given a job offer. It is said that his head was cut off.
Later, the suspects were taken into custody in the state’s Ido Local Government Area at Apete.
Nonetheless, the episode shocked a lot of the locals.
It was really pathetic, remarked a local who did not want her name to be published. One of the suspected killers was a well-liked cleric in the Alapata Islamic community who was well-known for his unusual turban.
