The paymaster of the Ekiti State Police Command and a Superintendent of
Police, Mr. Idowu Taiwo, was, yesterday, found dead. He had been kidnapped on Sunday
night by unknown gunmen.
Taiwo was reported to have been found dead in a car in Ado Ekiti, the

kidnappers of the Officer in Charge of Finance, fondly called OC MSS. Sources
claimed that he was at a joint within the vicinity of Ologede Police Station

him away to unknown destination. The sources added that Taiwo was not found
until yesterday, when he was discovered dead, with his hands in handcuffs. The
Police Public Relations Officer of Ekiti Command, Mr. Alberto Adeyemi,
confirmed the incident in a telephone interview, saying “it is true. They
abandoned his body in a car in Ajebamidele area of the town. Investigations
have begun to arrest the perpetrators, but no arrest has been made yet.”
