An Osun State Magistrate’s Court sitting in Osogbo has remanded three suspects in connection with the murder of an officer of the Federal Road Safety Corps, Ogun State Command, Lasisi Oluwamayokun, and her daughter, Adesewa.
The suspects — Gboyega Daramola, 39; Sunday James, 38; and Fajemirokun Victor, 36 — were ordered to be remanded at the Ilesa Correctional Centre until February 6 by the presiding magistrate, O. A. Daramola, on Friday.
The trio were charged in court by the Osun State Commissioner of Police, who filed a motion ex parte seeking an order to remand the defendants pending legal advice from the Ministry of Justice.
In an affidavit in support of the motion, deposed to by the Investigating Police Officer, Inspector Babawale Taiwo, the police urged the court to remand the defendants while awaiting advice from the Office of the Director of Public Prosecution.
Providing details of the alleged offences in the affidavit dated January 16, 2026, the IPO said Oluwafemi Fajemirokun and Mariam Fajemirokun of No. 34, Akande Street, Alekuwodo, Osogbo, on November 10, 2025, reported at the Ikoyi Police Divisional Headquarters that their younger brother, Victor Fajemirokun Emmanuel, 40, had gone missing after leaving Osogbo on November 2, 2025, for prayer activities at Ikoyi Prayer Mountain.
He stated that during the investigation, it was discovered that Lasisi Funmilayo Oluwamayokun, 39, and her daughter, Lasisi Sewa, 10, both from Abeokuta, Ogun State, also went missing on the same date.
“Further investigation revealed that Victor Fajemirokun murdered the victims for ritual purposes. The respondents gruesomely murdered the victim and her daughter and dismembered their bodies. Victor Fajemirokun was identified as the mastermind of the crime,” the affidavit stated.
In her ruling, Magistrate Daramola ordered that “the defendants be remanded at the Ilesa Correctional Centre until February 6, 2026.”
