A gospel singer named Timileyin Ajayi has been arrested after allegedly being caught with the severed head of his girlfriend in Nasarawa.
The incident took place on Sunday in Agwan Sarki, Orozo, near the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
Ajayi’s arrest was made possible by an intelligence tip-off, which led security agents to an uncompleted building in the area.
The severed head was discovered in a polythene bag.
During questioning, Ajayi, who also acts as a motivational speaker on TikTok, admitted to the crime.
In a viral video, he stated that he had been in a relationship with Salome Adaidu for one year before her death. In his defense, he claimed that they had a heated argument, and she tried to stab him with a knife.
Ajayi, who released his album ‘God of the Earth’ in 2020, also disclosed that the rest of the victim’s body was at his residence.
A man who identifies himself as Caleb Umaru, a member of the Nasarawa community, also spoke about the incident via a Facebook post.
“I got the shock of my life as we apprehend a Yahoo ritual with a human head (his girlfriend) inside a nylon close to our church as we were holding service,” he wrote.
“I thought I just used to watch things like this until I experienced one “Live” today.
“And this guy said the remaining body of the girl is still in his house. God have mercy on this generation.”
