A suspected member of the dreaded Badoo cult group has been arrested
after smashing a lady’s head at the Ori-Oke branch of a white garment
church at Irapade area of Agbowa Lagos.
The suspect, Ahmed Adeleke, 29, who disguised as a worshipper,
attended the church’s vigil, during which a female member, who was
sleeping at a corner of the church, was heard shouting that she had been
attack
When curious members got to her, it was discovered that her head had
been smashed. She was said to have pointed to the direction where the
suspect took.
Some church members went in the direction and reportedly found the suspect changing his clothes.
He was said to have denied the allegation. But on further
observation, the white garment which he pulled off was discovered to be
blood stained.
Parading the suspect yesterday at the Police Officers Mess, Ikeja,
the Lagos State Command boss, Fatai Owoseni said: “Policemen from
Ipakodo Division rushed to the church.
“Although the suspect denied the accusation, when the area was
searched, three handkerchiefs (white, blue and red) were recovered from
him. Also, a grinding stone, which he used to hit his victim on the
head, was also found.”
The suspect, however, denied being a Badoo member.
He said: “I was a Muslim, but later converted to Christianity. I live
at 9, Ojokoro Street, Agric. I was invited to worship there that night
by a senior colleague, Kehinde, at the tailoring shop where I work.”
However, asked if Kehinde had come to identify him, he shook his head
in the negative, saying “how would she come? She may be afraid of being
arrested as well.”
