Ogun state CP, Olanrewaju Ogunlowo




A dismissed soldier, Yemisi Poroye, who is the principal suspect in a conspiracy and murder case reported earlier on June 25 has surrendered to the Police in Ogun state.

Police sources told Zagazola Makama that the suspect turned himself in at about 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, following intensified police efforts to track him down.

The sources said that three other suspects earlier arrested in connection with the case, along with relevant exhibits, had already been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (SCIID), Abeokuta, for discreet investigation.

The sources added that the circumstances surrounding the murder and the dismissed soldier’s alleged role are currently under investigation. (Zagazola)
