The 9 Brigade of the Nigerian Army has handed over 23-year-old, Ayomide Adeleye, the suspected murderer of a 300-level student of Pure and Applied Botany (PAB), Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB), Christiana Idowu.

Idowu Christiana who was kidnapped on August 19, 2024, was allegedly murdered by Ayomide, a 200-level student of the Department of Philosophy at Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU), after collecting ransom and withdrawing money from the victim’s account.

Operatives got confirmation of his presence in a building through active tracking of his mobile device. Immediately, the personnel of the Nigerian Army swooped in on the suspect to conduct an arrest.

After he had confessed to the killing, the Nigerian Army handed him over to the Police.

Providing an update on the arrest, Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Benjamin Hundeyin said: “He has been handed over to the Lagos State Police Command by 9 Brigade of the Nigerian Army.

“An investigation is ongoing.”

Ayomide and the victim reportedly met on social media.

Reports claimed that Ayomide had previously murdered other ladies and buried them in the same manner.
