According to the report, Adedeji had a disagreement with his ex-girlfriend Titi Sunmonu, because of the disagreement, the man went to his girlfriend families house with a jerrycan of petroleum in the middle of the midnight, he struggle and gained entrance into the House through the window, and then sprayed the families with petroleum while they were asleep and set them ablaze.
Adenuga, which is popularly called ‘Ojuode’, was said to have absconded from the town after carrying out his evil intention, but series of investigations” by the Police, led to his arrest on Monday evening in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State, where he was hiding under a bridge.
Adenuga, reveal that he burn the families in retaliation of his girlfriend to abort a pregnancy she had for him, he said these when he was been investigated at the headquarters of the Ondo State Police Command in Akure today Tuesday 30 2019.
He alleged to have carried out a series of investigation about the lady before she rejected him based on her elder sister’s advice.
He explain that they often have relationship issues that always result to settlement in the police station.
“What actually happened was that Titi aborted the four-month-old pregnancy that she had for me while we were dating each other,” he said in an emotional tears.
“Though, we have been having issues in recent times, I have spent a lot of money on her. I gave her a sum of N30,000 to start a petty trade, as she was selling sachet water. Later, I gave her a sum of N25,000 to keep for me, making N55,000 but I think she spent the money lavishly because she was staying with me.
“And while she was staying with me, I spent money on her because there is this her elder sister called Jumoke who used to collect money from me. The elder sister was always controlling her and teaching her what to do, and the issue became open that we dragged one another to the police station.
“We later resolved all the issues but surprisingly, Titi packed her property out of my house, saying her sister said I should come and pay N20,000 for her dowry before she would return.
“I begged them to give me time to look for money, and do the needful but they refused and started playing me, having spent so much for her. I went to the station to report what she and her elder sister were doing to me but the Police saw it as a small issue so they settled it.
“After we left the station, they began to abuse me and make jest of me, saying I was a failure and not even a man for dragging them to the police station. In fact, they threatened me. They said they would deal with me and even kill me if I did not desist from reporting them on the streets. I saw those words as big threats.
“That same day, I planned to take an action and I went to the gas station at night, bought fuel and stormed their house and poured petrol inside the room while I ran away.”
