The Command’s Spokesperson, CSP Benjamin Hundeyin confirmed the arrest, disclosing that the victim was set ablaze on May 24, 2025, at Gangare area of Mile 12 in a premeditated act orchestrated by her estranged lover and accomplices.

Hundeyin debunked the widespread misinformation attributed to the killing and burning of the victim, saying there was no blasphemy involved in the incident.

He noted that the deceased had been living in the area with relatives from the northern part of the country, and that her exact occupation remained unknown.

According to him, “Facts from preliminary investigations revealed that she is from Nasarawa State and not a Yoruba woman.

”The protracted problem between her and her boyfriend, now at large, who tried to forcefully rekindle their relationship, led to the conspiracy.

“The boyfriend, along with other suspects, two of whom are now in custody, planned and executed the attack,” he said.

However, he added that the investigation was being intensified to apprehend the boyfriend and the other suspects still at large.

The police spokesman stressed that the suspects were currently in custody at the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID), where they were assisting the detectives in efforts to apprehend other perpetrators involved in the murder.

Hundeyin assured the public that normalcy had been fully restored in the affected slum and other areas in the Mile 12 area.

“Lagos residents are encouraged not to panic. They should go about their lawful activities peacefully without apprehension while awaiting the outcome of the investigation which will certainly be made public.

“People are implored to exercise restraint and refrain from spreading unverified information that may cause unnecessary fear, ” he said.

The Police image maker reiterated that the Command remained committed to ensuring the safety and security of all residents and will continue to provide timely updates as the investigation progresses.
