A step-brother of the deceased, Samuel Ibironke, alleged that, “after killing my sister, he called my wife who is a health worker to come and assist him, only for my wife to get there and discover that he strangled my sister to death”.
It was further gathered that the pastor was allegedly caught with the corpse on his way out of the town.
The Rampage
The traditional ruler of the community, Oba Aderemi Obaleye, in his reaction to the incident, condemned the killing of the woman.
“It is a very sad development which nearly set the town on fire because the youths went on a rampage in protest against the so-called pastor.
“I want the authorities to investigate the matter and bring the culprit to book so as to serve as a deterrent to others.”
