Human skull found in church ceiling

 

The Lagos State Directorate of Public Prosecutions has said 49-year-old Samson Adeneye and a woman, Oyerinde Olawunmi, 48, have a case to answer in a matter in which a human skull was found in the ceiling of an orthodox church in Lagos.

Two policemen attached to the Special Anti-robbery Squad – ASP Franklin Alade and Cpl Deleojo Odunayo – were also implicated in the matter, for abuse of office.

PUNCH Metro had reported in July 2013, that a human skull was found in the ceiling of the St. Peter Cherubim and Seraphim band on Moses Adebisi Street, in the Ketu area of the state.

Prior to the incident, Adeneye and Olawunmi, who were former members of the band, were said to have sent threat text messages to some of the church’s ministers.

The two suspects were said to have accused the pastors of occultism and threatened to deal with them and kill them.

Both suspects were said to have alerted the two SARS officers that there was a case of gunrunning in the assembly.

The policemen reportedly stormed the assembly without any search warrant and headed for the ceiling where they allegedly found the item.
