Operatives of the Ondo State Security Network Agency, also known as Amotekun Corps, have arrested a 30-year-old school dropout, Seun Ojo, for shooting his prostitute girlfriend, Enny, to death in Owo area of the state.
Ojo said he shot his girlfriend at closed range for not giving him enough attention as his lover.
He added that his prostitute girlfriend had been ignoring him and as well giving other men attention.
The suspect was paraded alongside 45 other suspects arrested for various criminal offences ranging from kidnapping, armed robbery, stealing, and snatching of motorbikes among others by the state security outfit, codenamed, Amotekun.
During an interview with Vanguard, the suspect said, “My girlfriend’s name is Enny, she is a prostitute who always comes to Ikare junction in Owo. I shot her after I noticed that she gives other men more attention than me.
“We have been having issues for a while now. That particular day she repeated what I warned her against and I became furious and I shot her. But she did not die. I learnt that she is in hospital.
“I’m not a cultist, and I have never shot anyone in my life. The gun that I used against her belongs to my father who is a hunter. My father does use the gun to hunt and kill animals.”
But, the Amotekun commander, Chief Adeleye said the woman later died of the gunshot injury.
Also, paraded include a 65 years old herbalist, Muritala Jimoh, and five other suspected kidnappers who hypnotise their victims in Odigbo council area of the state.

” We contacted the Amotekun in Ogun state who assisted us in apprehending him.
“We also have another group that specializes in kidnapping. They actually kidnapped a lady in Ore but we were able to get the victim out alive without ransom and we were able to apprehend the suspected kidnappers”.
In an interview, the 47-year-old woman arrested with her daughter, confessed to the crime.
” I only directed the gang to help me kidnap a mad pregnant woman. I intended to take custody of the baby after delivery because I have not been able to conceive after this my first child.
