A 32-year old gospel singer, Timileyin Ajayi, has spoken up on the murder of one Salome Adaidu, who was alleged to be his girlfriend.
The suspect, who was caught with the severed head of Salome last week, asserted he does not regret killing her, as she was cheating on him with other men.
It was learnt that the 24-year old Salome was a National Youth Service Corps member serving with Nicon Insurance in Abuja.
She had visited the suspect at his Papalana axis, New Karshi in Karu Local Government Area of Nasarawa State, residence, before her untimely death.
Speaking with reporters, the suspected killer said, “I killed her because we don’t have each other all the time. It’s not something I planned. It happened on that day and it happened. Not that I have the plan in mind.
“She was cheating. She hides most of the things from me most times. I got to know from her phone. I saw her chats with other guys on the phone, that was why I decided.
“I don’t have any regrets because life is reciprocal that is what I thought. If you must do something to someone, you have to be reciprocal with that person.
“You have to understand what that person is going through so that you can actually put yourself in the position that the person is going through. That is why I don’t have any regrets because we were actually compatible.”
It is understood that Ajayi has been remanded in the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of the Nasarawa State Police Command in Lafia, the Nasarawa State capital.
Meanwhile, Salome’s elder sister, Esther Adaidu, denied existence of any relationship between her deceased sister and the suspect, while pleading for justice.
She said, “This so-called Timi guy, we don’t know him. We have never seen him until we were called up to tell us that this guy murdered and dismembered our sister.
“I demand and need justice to be served to this guy sitting over there, because he is the one that murdered my sister and he confirmed it to me.”
Salome’s uncle, Samson Adaidu, who also spoke for the family, said: “The position of the family is we discovered this through the Nigerian Police and we are expecting justice from the police.
“He has succeeded in destroying our daughter. Not ordinary killing, he butchered her into pieces. He cut that body into more than 50 pieces.
“And when you look at the whole thing, he is preparing that body for consumption because he cut them and left them in about six polythene bags.”
