A shocking incident has shaken the peaceful community of Kemta Abata in Abeokuta, the capital of Ogun State, as a man identified as Taye Agbaje reportedly took the lives of his own nieces, sending shockwaves through the neighborhood.
The heart-wrenching incident unfolded on August 6 when Taye Agbaje made a fateful visit to his brother’s residence in Kemta Abata. Seemingly unassuming, he took the opportunity to abduct his younger brother’s two innocent children, both girls, from the premises. Tragically, his nefarious actions took a sinister turn as he later ended their lives in a remote bush using a cutlass.
Idowu Agbaje, the father of the two children, was absent from home when the grim abduction occurred. Upon returning home in the evening and discovering the absence of his beloved daughters, he initiated a frantic search effort within the community. Concerned members of the neighborhood soon shared that they had witnessed the two girls riding with Taye Agbaje on his motorcycle earlier in the day.
The shocking news reverberated through the community, leaving residents of Kemta Abata in a state of disbelief. Local sources conveyed their astonishment, pointing out that the accused, Taye Agbaje, was not a resident of the area.
A reliable source within the community, who preferred to remain anonymous, disclosed that Taye Agbaje was promptly taken into custody by the police following the discovery of his heinous crime.
In a chilling video that rapidly circulated online, Idowu Agbaje, the grieving father, disclosed that his daughters, nine-year-old Promise and her seven-year-old sister Testimony, fell victim to Taye Agbaje’s brutality. The video captured the inconsolable father recounting the gruesome details, revealing that the girls were mercilessly attacked with a machete within the depths of the bush, and their lifeless bodies left abandoned.
Questioned in the video footage, Taye Agbaje astonishingly denied carrying out the murders for the purpose of money rituals. However, his denial fell short in the face of the disturbing reality: both girls were discovered with their private parts missing, adding a chilling layer of horror to the already unthinkable crime.
The investigative process led authorities to Kemta police division, where Taye Agbaje eventually confessed to the chilling act. He grimly guided the police to the very spot in the bush where he had committed the gruesome act, providing a grim confirmation of his heinous deed.
A deeply unsettling motive emerged as Taye Agbaje cited an obscure reason for his monstrous actions. According to the source, he claimed that his brother’s wife had supposedly stolen his glory through spiritual means for her own husband. This bewildering justification left the community and law enforcement utterly perplexed, struggling to comprehend the depths of his depravity.
Omolola Odutola, the Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, confirmed the harrowing incident, characterizing it as incomprehensible. During the interrogation process, Taye Agbaje displayed an alarming lack of remorse, instead placing the blame on Satan for his actions.
“The suspect didn’t provide any coherent reason for taking the lives of his brother’s children. He showed no signs of remorse. He continues to attribute his actions to Satan, which holds no weight in the eyes of the law,” stated Odutola, emphasizing the gravity of the situation.
As the community grapples with the aftermath of this heartrending tragedy, authorities are left to unravel the complex motives behind this senseless act of violence. The nation remains in shock as they mourn the lives of Promise and Testimony, innocent lives lost to a darkness that defies comprehension.
