A suspect from Kogi state
identified as Bernard Simon, killed Ogundana after she removed him as the
Parent Teacher Association (PTA) Secretary for alleged illegal practices.
One of the suspects
arrested over the murder of the Commandant of the Armed Forces Command and
Staff College Secondary School in Jaji, Navy Commander Oluyemisi Ogundana,
allegedly planned the attack in a church.
Bernard was reportedly
staying at a church at the time of the attack after being evicted from his
apartment by his landlady who wasn’t pleased with his behaviour.
“He is the General
Secretary of the church and when his landlady sent him packing, he moved his
things to the church. He was actually staying in the church at the time he
planned and killed her. It is suspected that he killed her on Friday night.
“He tore her net to gain
entry into the passage and then to her garage. It is suspected he ambushed her
at the garage because that place is inner garage and a bit dark,” a source told
The Nation.
Bernard returned to the
deceased’s apartment to steal her laptop, money and other valuables after
disposing her mutilated body in a well near a church located in the cantonment
with the help of his nephew Ibrahim Momoh. Some of the items were recovered from
his wife who confessed to getting them from the arrested suspects.
“After they killed her,
they went away with her car but the man came back to her apartment on Saturday
and ransacked it. He was looking for the original vehicle documents to ease the
sale but it seems he could not get it. Then, he went and got two soldiers to
assure buyers that the vehicle was not stolen and it was genuine.
“The soldiers claimed that
they did not know the vehicle belonged to the commander and that they did not
know anything had happened to her. They have been arrested by the military
police because what they did was even illegal,” another source said.
