A Special Adviser to Osun State Governor, Mr Bode
Olugbore, has been arrested by the police over the
death of his girlfriend, Miss Kemi Arobieke.
Our correspondent gathered that Kemi, a graduate of the Lagos State University, visited Bode in Osogbo, the Osun State capital on Thursday, August 6, all the way from Lagos and promised to return on Saturday.

The deceased’s elder brother, Ayo, who confirmed
the death of his sister to our correspondent on the
telephone on Tuesday, said Kemi had known
Olugbore for about four years, but the family did not
know about their relationship.

The brother of the deceased said he, Kemi and Bode
were members of the same church in Lagos adding
that her sister said the suspect had been separated
from his wife.

He said, “My sister travelled to Osogbo and she was
supposed to return to Lagos on Saturday, but we got
a call from the police that she was involved in an
accident and it was very serious.

“We got to Osogbo but the police prevented us from
seeing her only to be told that she was electrocuted.
She was said to have been electrocuted by a Binatone
fan, but it is unbelievable.

“The current in a fan is not enough to kill, except one
has direct contact with a live wire. The mark on her
body suggests something contrary.”

He said he saw Bode at the State Criminal
Investigation Department on two occasions he went
to the place.

The deceased’s brother said the police had done the
autopsy, but the family was still waiting for the police
to give them the result.

He said, ” We were told that Bode’s family will have to
be present before they would give us the result.”

The governor’s media aide, Mr. Semiu Okanlawon,
when contacted declined to comment on the matter.
He said, ” It’s a police matter. You can get accurate
information about whatever happened from the
police.”

Also, efforts to speak to the Police Public Relations
Officer, Mrs Folasade Odoro, proved abortive on the
matter as calls put across to her telephone were
picked but she refused to talk.

After many calls to her other telephone, a male voice
answered the call and told our correspondent that
the PPRO was not in the office but left her phone for
charging. He promised that the PPRO would call back
when she returned, but she did not.

Also, a text message sent to inquire about the case
was not replied to as of the time of filing this report.
