A Nasarawa State-based gospel singer, Timileyin Ajayi, confessed to the Police why and how he killed his girlfriend -Salome Enejo Adaidu, on Sunday morning of January 12, 2025.

Salome, aged 24, was a National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, member serving with Nicon Insurance in Abuja. She had visited her boyfriend- Ajayi, at his Papalana axis, New Karshi in Karu Local Government Area of Nasarawa State.

Ajayi, in a confessional statement,  told the Police that while they were together, they had a dispute over her phone.

Ajayi claimed that Salome attacked him with a knife and injured his hand, and in retaliation, he stabbed her in the neck, severed her head, and butchered her into pieces.

That morning,  Ajayi was caught by the members of a Church with Salome’s severed head concealed in a blood-dripping polythene bag.

When asked why he was carrying the head, Ajayi alleged that “a woman” instructed him to bring it for her.

According to the church’s Bible Study Teacher and General Secretary, Caleb Umaru, police officers took Ajayi and the decapitated head away.

She was cheating, I don’t regret killing her’ – Timileyin Ajayi

Timileyin Ajayi, aged 32, who was caught with the severed head of Salome Adaidu, has said he does not regret having killed her, as she was cheating on him with other men.

He told Channels TV: “I killed her because we don’t have each other all the time. It’s not something I planned.

It happened on that day and it happened. Not that I have a plan in mind.

“She was cheating. She hides most of the things from me most of the time.

I got to know from her phone. I saw her chats with other guys on the phone, that was why I decided.

“I don’t have any regrets because life is reciprocal that is what I thought. If you must do something to someone, you have to be reciprocal with that person.

“You have to understand what that person is going through so that you can put yourself in the position that the person is going through.

That is why I don’t have any regrets because we were compatible.”

We don’t know him – Salome’s family

However, Salome’s elder sister, Esther Adaidu, denied that any relationship existed between her deceased sister and the suspect, as she pleaded for justice.

She said: “This so-called Timi guy, we don’t know him. We had never seen him until we were called up to tell us that this guy murdered and dismembered our sister.

“I demand and need justice to be served to this guy sitting over there because he is the one who murdered my sister, and he confirmed it to me.”

Salome’s uncle, Samson Adaidu, spoke for the family: “The position of the family is we discovered this through the Nigerian Police and we are expecting justice from the police.

“He has succeeded in destroying our daughter. Not ordinary killing, he butchered her into pieces. He cut that body into more than 50 pieces.

“And when you look at the whole thing, he is preparing that body for consumption because he cut them and left them in about six polythene bags.”

There’ll be justice – Police

Police have promised justice in the matter. The Police Public Relations Officer of the Nasarawa State Command, SP Ramhan Nansel, said: “Investigation is ongoing, and upon conclusion, he will be arraigned in court for prosecution.

I want to assure the family and members of the public that this suspect will not be spared if found wanting.

“We are calling on members of the public, who may have any complaints against the suspect, to come forward with their complaints, and it will be looked into and investigated.”

BREAKING: Judge sentences Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs to over 4 years in prison

Published

59 Views

American music mogul and businessman, Sean Combs, popularly known as “P-Diddy” was sentenced on Friday to 50 months in prison on prostitution charges under the Mann Act.

Recall that Combs was convicted earlier this year on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.

U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian said the court had seen a “massive” amount of evidence against Combs and added that a significant sentence was required to be a deterrence and to send a message.

“A substantial sentence must be given to send a message to abusers and victims alike that abuse against women is met with real accountability,” the judge said,

Along with serving four years and two months in prison, Combs also must pay a $500,000 fine.

In his final remarks to Combs, Subramanian noted that he will still have a life after prison, adding “there is a light at the end of the tunnel.”

After the judge read his sentence, Combs appeared dejected and worn out as he turned to his mother and children, letting out a sigh and telling them, “I’m sorry. I’m sorry,”.

Subramanian cited law that says no limitation can be placed on the “background, character and conduct” that a judge can consider in sentencing. He said the sentence is fair for the severity of Combs’ crimes and other mitigating factors.

During Combs’ sentencing hearing, the judge heard from the rapper’s children as well as multiple defense lawyers and other character witnesses.

The defense argued that Combs should be free for his family’s sake and that he has changed and deserves a second chance to be better.

Defense lawyer Brian Steel argued that “Combs has punished himself more than anyone will be able to punish him and it will stay with him for the rest of his days.

Mr. Combs does not need any additional time in custody. That is not the way we treat drug addiction and trauma today.

”Before the judge gave his sentence, Combs was given a chance to speak, saying that he has lost his business, his career, destroyed his reputation and lost his self-respect.

‘I’ve been stripped down to nothing,” he added.

“I want to thank you for finally giving me a chance to speak up for myself. One of the hardest things I’ve had to handle is to be quiet, not able to express how sorry I am for my actions,” Combs said.

Combs was sentenced under the Mann Act, which makes it illegal to transport someone across state lines for the purpose of prostitution or other illegal sex acts.

He was convicted on counts involving two former girlfriends, R&B singer Cassie and a woman who testified under the pseudonym Jane.

During the sentencing hearing, federal prosecutors argued that the hip-hop mogul deserved at least 11 years in prison and his defense lawyers asked for a sentence of no more than 14 months,

“Mr. Combs, you’re being sentenced for the offenses of conviction, NOT the crimes he was acquitted of.

However, under law, the court ‘shall consider’ the nature of the offense and characteristics of the defendant,” Subramanian said as he sentenced Combs,

The Federal High Court in Abuja has ruled that Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), must face trial in his ongoing terrorism case.

Delivering the ruling on Thursday, Justice James Omotosho dismissed Kanu’s no-case submission, stating that the prosecution had presented sufficient evidence linking him to terrorism-related activities. The judge ordered Kanu to open his defence on October 8, 2025.

According to Justice Omotosho, the prosecution’s exhibits and witness testimonies raise “serious allegations” that merit a full trial.

In a separate directive, the court also ordered the President of the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) to constitute a special medical team to evaluate Kanu’s current health condition. The judge mandated the committee to submit its report within eight days.

The court instructed that the medical panel, consisting of 8 to 10 members including a cardiologist and a neurologist, must assess whether the Department of State Services (DSS) medical facility is adequately equipped to manage Kanu’s health needs. The committee is also empowered to use any medical facility in the country during its investigation.

Justice Omotosho further directed that the Chief Medical Director of the National Hospital, Abuja, be included as a member of the committee. Based on the committee’s findings, the court will determine whether Kanu should be transferred to the National Hospital for further treatment.

The trial continues amidst growing public and international attention surrounding Kanu’s detention and the broader implications for the separatist movement he leads.
