How driver killed couple, son for refusing to increase his salary in Ogun

A driver identified as Lekan Adekanbi has narrated how he gruesomely murdered the couple he works for, Kehinde and Bukola Fatinoye, and their son Oreoluwa Fatinoye for refusing to increase his salary.

The couple and their son were killed in their residence located in Ibara GRA, Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital on January 1.

Adekanbi who revealed that he planned the killing of the couple and their only surviving son said he carried out the murder with the help of two others.

Adekanbi who is the prime suspect spoke to journalists when he and four others were paraded before journalists at the command’s headquarters in Eleweran, Abeokuta.

According to him, he had planned to rob the couple after they refused to increase his salary and grant him a loan request, but then decided to kill them.

Adekanbi, who had been the couple’s driver since 2010, explained that he invited two others, Ahmed Odetola, a.k.a ‘Akamo’, and Waheed Adeniyi a.k.a ‘Koffi’ to join him to rob the couple.

He said: “I took the step because the couple refused to increase my salary, and when I approached them for a loan to buy a motorcycle, they didn’t oblige.”

Explaining how the deadly act was carried out, Adekanbi noted that he and his two accomplices waited for the couple to come back from crossover service since he had access to the house and they pounced on them immediately after they entered the house.

He added that they had access to the house despite an Alsatian dog mounted at the gate because the dog is familiar with him being the person who always feeds it.
