The Nigeria Police Force, through the INTERPOL National Central Bureau (NCB) in Abuja, has taken full custody of a fugitive suspect, Victor Benjamin Fejemirokun.
Fejemirokun is suspected of having killed an FRSC employee, SRC OO Lasisi (PIN C-06239) and her daughter. The Osun State Police Command recovered the remains of Lasisi from a river near Iwoye-Ijesa on Monday, November 17, 2025.
The suspect was handed over by the Ghana Police Service in Accra, Ghana, following a coordinated multi-agency operation.
Force PRO, CSP Benjamin Hundeyin said Fajemirokun had fled Nigeria after the abduction and the murder of the two victims.
The Ghana Police Service, acting on credible intelligence that the suspect was hiding within their jurisdiction, effected his arrest and immediately notified the Nigeria Police Force. Acting on this notification, Interpol NCB Abuja swiftly proceeded to Accra, where the handover was finalised.
The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Egbetokun, while commiserating with the bereaved family, assured them that the investigation would be thorough and brought to a logical conclusion, after which the suspect would be arraigned accordingly.
He also commended the Ghana Police Service for its professionalism and cooperation.
The Nigeria Police Force assured the public that it remains committed to protecting the lives of all Nigerians and apprehending offenders, regardless of distance or borders, while strengthening international partnerships against transnational crimes.
