By James Ogunnaike, Abeokuta

The Ogun State Police Command has arrested three suspects in connection with the gruesome murder of a former employee of Ogun State Television (OGTV), Ms Olakitan Oyesiku, and her security guard, Pelumi Adetayo, following what police described as a painstaking investigation aided by forensic analysis, intelligence gathering and technical tracking.

The Ogun State Commissioner of Police, Bode Ojajuni, disclosed the breakthrough on Thursday during a media briefing at the command headquarters in Eleweran, Abeokuta.

Ojajuni said the principal suspect, 22-year-old Sodeinde Olajuwon Philip, confessed to masterminding the attack and recruiting two accomplices, Sakirudeen Abdulraheem Ayoola, 27, and Sobu Obafunsho, 36, to carry out the crime.
