Te Ekiti State Police Command is currently hunting for an okada rider who allegedly raped his landlady to death in Ado-Ekiti.
The police have confirmed that the incident happened on Thursday, with the victim’s name given as Mrs Bukola Olanrewaju.
The suspect was said to have broken into the woman’s room when her husband had gone to farm while her children had gone for summer coaching.
Apart from wielding a cutlass, he was also said to have strangulated the woman after raping her.
According to the command’s Public Relations Officer, Caleb, Ikechukwu, the medical examination conducted on the deceased at the Ekiti State University Teaching Hospital (EKSUTH) confirmed that she was raped before being strangled to death by her assailant.
“Medical examination confirmed the above but we have not been able to ascertain who actually committed the crime and what actually led to that.
“Apart from this, we saw condom and semen within the scene where the crime was committed, which also substantiated the fact she was actually raped.
“We were told that a man, who was a neighbour actually did it and fled. We are yet to arrest the man but proper security arrangements have been made that would ensure speedy arrest of the suspect,” Ikechukwu said,
