Mr Samson Adaji Adaidu, an uncle to the recently beheaded member of the National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, Miss Salome Eleojo Adaidu, has alleged that the killer was preparing his niece’s body for consumption.

 

Timileyin Ajayi, a 32-year-old man, was recently arrested by the Nigeria Police for allegedly killing his girlfriend, Salome Eleojo Adaidu.

 

Ajayi, who was reportedly a gospel singer and content creator, was apprehended on Sunday with the severed head of the Abuja-based corps member.

 

Following his arrest, the suspect led operatives of the Nasarawa State Police Command to his room, where the dismembered body of the young lady was found in about five different bags.

 

Speaking with Channels TV on Tuesday, the uncle of the deceased alleged that the body was being prepared for consumption.

 

He further claimed that there was evidence in Ajayi’s room suggesting that the suspect had been engaging in the gruesome act for a while, adding that Salome may not have been his first victim.

 

“We are expecting justice from the police. He has succeeded in destroying our daughter. Not just killing her, he butchered her into pieces,” Mr. Adaidu said.

 

“The suspect cut the body into more than 50 pieces, and when you look at the whole thing, it appears he was preparing the body for consumption.

 

“He cut the body and left the parts in about six polythene bags. It was just like when people contribute money to buy a cow during festive periods, and the Fulani butchers come to share the meat for those who contributed.

 

“When we went to his room, we discovered that this was not the first time he had done this. He is a professional in this. He had all the knives in his room that he uses to cut the bodies.

 

“There is a lot of evidence to show that this is not the first person he has destroyed there.”
