The Ogun State Police Command has arrested a motorcycle rider, Kadir Owolabi, after three human skulls were allegedly found in his possession.
Police spokesperson, CSP Omolola Odutola, disclosed this in a statement issued in Abeokuta on Tuesday, describing the discovery as “shocking.”
According to the statement, mobile police operatives from 71 PMF, Awa Ijebu, intercepted Owolabi during a routine stop-and-search along the Ijebu Ode–Ibadan Expressway at Refugees Camp Junction, Oru Ijebu, around 2:00 p.m. on Monday.
A search of his luggage reportedly uncovered the skulls.
Preliminary investigations led to the arrest of another suspect, 53-year-old Jamiu Yisa, at a location behind the Ijebu Ode Local Government Secretariat.
Odutola said the Commissioner of Police, Lanre Ogunlowo, had directed the State Criminal Investigation Department to take over the case for further investigation.
