Operatives from the Nasarawa State Police Command have apprehended a suspected internet fraudster, identified as Ajayi, for allegedly murdering his girlfriend, Salome Enejo, for ritual purposes.
DAILY POST previously reported that the suspect was found in Agwan Sarki, Orozo—a border area between Nasarawa State and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT)—with a freshly severed human head on Sunday.
Ramhan Nansel, the Nasarawa State Police Public Relations Officer, confirmed the incident to DAILY POST on Monday, stating that the suspect was saved from being lynched by an enraged mob.
The PPRO explained that after rescuing Ajayi, police operatives followed him to his residence, where they discovered the dismembered body of the young woman.
According to the police, the deceased was later identified as a serving member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in Abuja.
The PPRO reported, “On Sunday evening, police operatives from the Karshi Division intervened and rescued Ajayi from a mob that had severely beaten him. A sack containing a fresh human head was subsequently recovered from him. Further investigation led the police to his home, where they found dismembered human remains packed into sacks.
“The suspect has been taken to the hospital for treatment. The victim was later identified as Salome Enejo, a 24-year-old resident of Nyanya, Abuja, and a serving corps member. The Commissioner of Police has ordered a thorough investigation into the case
