Homicide detectives of the Lagos State Criminal Investigations
Department, Panti, Yaba, have arrested an undergraduate of the Redeemers
University, Ogun State, in connection with the brutal murder of a
suspected gay banker, Adindu Ohamara.
According to sources, the banker was on April 9, found in a pool of his
blood in his room, having been stabbed severally by the suspect.
Six persons were thereafter arrested in connection with the crime by
detectives from the Homicide Unit of the State Criminal Investigations

Some of the persons picked-up by the Police included, a sister of the deceased, Flora who regained her freedom on Wednesday.
DailyPost has gathered that detectives finally picked up the male
student from the Redeemers University, located along the Lagos-Ibadan
Expressway, Ogun state who is now termed the prime suspect.
According to our sources, the prime suspect, name withheld, initially
denied knowing the deceased while being drilled by Police detectives,
but later admitted knowing the deceased. He however gave an alibi that
he was reading with some of his colleagues at the university premises at
the time of the murder.
The Police thereafter visited the university where the school
authorities were said to have told them that the student was not
anywhere near their premises at that material time.
The father of the suspect also told Police detectives that his son got home around 10p.m that day.
Late Ohamara, in his 30s, resides in a three-bedroom flat at 26 Obayan
Street, Akoka with his elder sister, Flora and one Collins, an
undergraduate of the University of Lagos and friend of the deceased who
was squatting with them.
It was learnt that on the day Ohamara was killed, he had returned home
from office with a stranger with whom he was suspected to have had a gay
relationship with.
According to the security guard at the gate, Ohamara and the stranger arrived home in the deceased’s car.
It was also learnt that some of the persons earlier arrested in
connection with the murder have identified the undergraduate as the
stranger who returned home with Ohamara that night and disappeared
before the severely-stabbed banker was discovered.
