A tragic incident has rocked Lokoja as Mr. Ayo Aiyepeku, a creative photographer, was gruesomely killed and dismembered by his colleague, Adebayo, near the Kogi Chieftaincy Lodge, close to the Government House.
The attack reportedly occurred in their office while both were working on editing tasks late at night. Adebayo allegedly lured Ayo outside, struck him fatally, and hid his dismembered body parts in a fridge behind his Hilux vehicle.
A witness quietly alerted the police, prompting a chase. Adebayo escaped, abandoning his damaged vehicle. He is said to be a staff member of the Nigerian Correctional Service and had previously assaulted his wife, who recently fled to Abuja.
Police are now on a manhunt for the suspect.
