    Operatives of Ogun State Police command have arrested four persons in connection with the killing of a barber at Isale Oja Kuto, Abeokuta last Wednesday.

    The killing of the barber was followed by a rival cult clash on Friday night, in which a 48-year-old POS operator, Fatai Kehinde, was killed under the Kuto bridge, Abeokuta.

    The POS operator, popularly known as Fatty and the son of the Baale of Kuto Community, Abeokuta, was reportedly butchered by his assailants, who chased him from his shop inside the Kuto market to beneath the Kuto bridge.

    He was said to have been buried on Saturday.

    In a phone conversation with our correspondent on Sunday, the State Commissioner of Police said, “We have successfully arrested four persons in connection with the killing of the barber by some suspected cultists a few days ago.

    “We are also on the trail of others, and this is just to say that there is no hiding place for criminals in the state. We will apprehend everyone involved in the killings and make them answer for their misdeeds.”
