Laderin estate in Obafemi-Owode LGA of Ogun State.David allegedly
scaled the fence of the late Timeyin’s bungalow, deactivated the
security system inside the building and laid siege within the premises
before hacking the retired magistrates to death.David, an Igede, Benue
state-born was reportedly employed two months ago and sent packing two
weeks ago for allegedly stealing his boss valuables including phones and
jewelries which led to his arrest and subsequently release on the boss
order.
Vanguard reports that after killing his former
boss, David (pictured above) scaled the fence back into the bush behind
the house where he hid himself to avoid being caught.It was one of the
sons of the late Chief Magistrate, Olumide, who heard the desperate
cries of his mum that raised alarm and residents in-turn alerted the men
of the Ogun State Vigilance Service.The police found a naked David at
the back of the house hiding inside the bush and arrested him. The
corpse of the retired magistrate was later taken away to the
mortuary.Policemen from Kemta Idi-aba and Ibara cordoned off the area
while detectives searched for evidence of the crime inside the house.
Journalists were barred from the house.
