Operatives of the Ogun State Security Network Agency, also known as Amotekun Corps, on Tuesday, arrested one Ramoni Segun after his girlfriend allegedly died in his house.
The deceased, simply identified as Adijat, was said to have spent the night at his residence in Odoraboyejo Ojowo, Ijebu Igbo, in the state.
It was gathered that the woman, who had complained of severe stomach pains, was discovered unresponsive and subsequently dead on Tuesday morning.
According to a statement by the corps’ deputy commander, Tajudeen Bakare, his arrest followed a distress call from an anonymous source.
Upon receiving the information, the officers promptly arrived at the scene, leading to the apprehension of the suspect for questioning.
Part of the statement read: “On Monday, February 3rd, 2025, in the evening, the suspect, identified as Ramoni Abiodun Segun, brought his girlfriend, Adijat, to his residence.
However, a distress call received this morning at 9:00 am from an anonymous source alerted that the woman was discovered unresponsive and subsequently dead in Segun’s room.
“In his statement, Segun claimed that Adijat had been experiencing stomach pain throughout the night, which he believed resulted in her unfortunate death.”
He noted that the suspect has been transferred to the Ijebu Igbo police division for further investigation to unravel the circumstances surrounding the death.
The deputy commander, however, urged members of the public who have further information regarding the incident to assist by coming forward.
