A final-year student, Yetunde Lawal, of the Kwara State College of Education, Ilorin, has been murdered, DAILY POST reports.

A suspect, identified as the son of a prominent Muslim cleric in the Isalekoto community, is now in custody at the police command headquarters in Ilorin in connection with the alleged murder of the late student.

According to reports, Yetunde Lawal went missing on Monday, 10 February 2025, after attending a naming ceremony, where she allegedly received a phone call from a friend, dropped her food, and left the event.
Her father, Ibrahim Lawal, reported her missing on Tuesday at the Oja-Oba Police Division in Ilorin.

A source told DAILY POST: “The police requested her phone number and used it to track her last call. The call was traced to an individual living in the Offa Garage area of Ilorin metropolis, although his family home is in Isalekoto.

“The suspect was arrested but initially denied any knowledge of the lady’s whereabouts. However, when the police searched his house, he confessed that the lady had visited him and had died from an asthma attack after he invited her over.

“Upon further investigation, the police discovered the lady’s body, dismembered and hidden in a bowl, along with the tools used to dismember her.

“According to the suspect, they met on Facebook, where he obtained her phone number. He then called her and invited her to his house.

“Disturbingly, evidence found in the suspect’s residence suggests this may not be his first offence. A table in his room appeared to be equipped with tools used for dismembering bodies.”
