Police in Lagos State has confirmed three separate murder cases across different areas of the state — Ojo, Agege, and Ikotun.
At a press briefing on Monday, the spokesman of the command, Benjamin Hundeyin, revealed that one Kamoru Ojo was arrested for allegedly killing his 27-year-old daughter, Shakirat, during a domestic altercation in the Afromedia community of Ojo.
The incident reportedly occurred on March 26, 2025. After beating her to death, Kamoru allegedly buried her in a shallow grave within their compound.
Detectives later uncovered the grave, exhumed the body, and transferred it to a public morgue for autopsy. Kamoru is now in custody.
