Osun: Police declare two wanted over alleged killing of FRSC officer, daughter
The police command in Osun has declared two persons wanted over the alleged ritual killing of a senior female officer of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) and her 10-year-old daughter.
This is contained in a wanted notice issued by the police public relations officer (PPRO) in the state, DSP Abiodun Ojelabi, on Friday in Osogbo.
Mr Ojelabi said that anyone with useful information that could lead to the arrest of the suspects would be rewarded.
“The public is hereby notified that Adumati Idowu and Faturoti Kehinde, both Nigerian nationals from Ijurin-Ekiti in Ekiti State, are wanted by the Nigeria Police, Osun State Command.
“The suspects are wanted in connection with the offence of murder.
“Adumati Idowu is about 38 years old, dark in complexion, with white teeth, about 1.7 metres tall, pointed nose, oblong head, black hair, and of Yoruba ethnic origin.
“Faturoti Kehinde, also known as ‘Fagorite’, is about 36 years old, dark in complexion, with white teeth, about 1.7 metres tall, pointed nose, oblong head, black hair, and of Yoruba ethnic origin.
“Both suspects are wanted for the murder of Mrs Funmilayo Lasisi, 38, and her 10-year-old daughter, Sewa Lasisi,” he said.
The PPRO added that anyone with useful information about the whereabouts of the suspects would be handsomely rewarded.
He urged anyone who sights or knows the whereabouts of the suspects to contact the nearest police station or call: 09060052947, 08039537995, or 08123823981.
Mr Ojelabi warned that anyone harbouring the suspects would be treated by the police as an accomplice to the crime.
The police had, on December 3, 2025, paraded three suspects arrested in connection with the killings, while two other suspects were said to be on the run.
Police said one of the suspects, an herbalist, on November 17, 2025, led detectives to Esa-Odo Dam in Obokun Local Government Area, where the remains of the FRSC officer and her daughter were dumped.
Police also said some vital body parts, including the head, breasts, hands and private parts, were missing from the victims’ remains.
The victims were reportedly lured from Ogun to Osun, where they were murdered by the suspects.
