The Osun State Police Command has declared two men, Nurudeen Iyanda Wakeeli, also known as Alowonle, and Adeyemi Ojo, popularly called Sibi, wanted in connection with the alleged murder of Olalekan Oyeyemi Ajagungbade, known as Emir.

The command announced the development in separate public notices issued on Friday by its Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Abiodun Ojelabi, on behalf of the Commissioner of Police in Osun State.

According to the notices, the two men are wanted for questioning in connection with the murder case. The police appealed to members of the public to provide credible information that could help officers locate them.

The notice described Wakeeli as an adult male of Yoruba origin, approximately 1.70 metres tall, with a dark complexion, white teeth, a pointed nose, an oblong-shaped head and black hair. He is also known by the alias Alowonle.

Ojo, who is reportedly from Ile-Ife in Osun State, was similarly described as an adult male of Yoruba origin, approximately 1.70 metres tall, with a dark complexion, white teeth, a pointed nose, an oblong-shaped head and black hair. He is also known as Sibi.

The police warned that anyone found harbouring either suspect could be treated as an accomplice in the alleged crime. The command also stated that a reward would be given to anyone who provides useful information leading to their whereabouts.

Residents with relevant information were urged to contact the Osun State Police Command through 08039537995 or 09060052947. Members of the public may also report information to the nearest police station.

The police have not provided further details about the circumstances surrounding Ajagungbade’s alleged murder in the supplied notices. The declaration of the two men as wanted does not establish their guilt, and the allegations remain subject to investigation.
