Taye Agbaje, a man, is accused of murdering his younger brother’s two children in a jungle near Abeokuta, the state’s capital.
According to reports, Taye went to his brother’s home in Kemta Abata, Abeokuta, on August 6, stole two girls on his bike, and then slaughtered them with a cutlass.
Additionally, it was heard that Idowu Agbaje, the father of the children, who was not home when Taye arrived to pick them up, began looking for them when he got home later that day.
He informed the locals when they reported seeing the two girls riding his brother’s motorcycle during the day.
Residents of Kemta Abata expressed shock over the incident, saying the suspect does not live within the community.
A source in the community, who did not want to be mentioned, explained that Taye was presently in police custody.
In a viral video, Agbaje said he macheted the two girls, Promise, nine years, and her seven-year-old younger sister, Testimony, inside the bush and left their corpses there.

Agbaje while being queried in the video, denied killing the kids for money ritual purposes but couldn’t explain why their private parts were also missing and could not even be found at the scene of the crime.
“When Taye was asked about the whereabouts of the girls, he denied knowing about their whereabouts. Members of the community said they saw him conveying the girls, yet he said he only took them to the market.
“He was taken to Kemta police division, where he later confessed to have killed his nieces. Taye took the police to the bush where he slit his nieces throats and left the bodies.
“We all saw the bodies where he killed them. Police have evacuated the corpses to the mortuary. Taye did not give any particular reason for his action, he only said the mother of the kids had spiritually taken his glory for her husband. This is very shocking,” the source narrated.
The Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, Omolola Odutola, confirmed the incident, describing the incident as incomprehensible.
According to Odutola, the suspect showed no remorse while being interrogated by the police, stating that he kept blaming Satan for the act.
“The suspect didn’t give any specific reason why he killed his brother’s children. There was no any sign of remorse. He’s just blaming Satan and that does not exist in law,” Odutola said.
