Fleeing Suspected Ibadan Serial Killer, Sunday Shodipe, Rearrested

Suspected Ibadan serial killer, Sunday Shodipe, has been rearrested by operatives of the Oyo State Police Command.

The command’s Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), SP Olugbenga Fadeyi, confirmed this development to newsmen in Ibadan on Sunday.

“The suspect has been rearrested and is currently in police custody,” he said.

Shodipe, 19, who is suspected to have killed over five persons at Akinyele Local Government Area of the state, escaped from the Mokola police station on Tuesday, August 11.

This prompted a wave of protests against the police, but the Commissioner of Police, Nwachukwu Enwonwu, had assured that everything had been put in place to ensure the rearrest of the suspect.

Last Thursday, a N500,000 bounty was placed on Shodipe’s head by the police.
