The late Opeyemi’s elder sister, Temitope Sadiku whose ID is Temmy456 on X announced the arrest of Mogaji in a post on Monday evening.
“Good evening, friends, My sister’s killer (Fatai Mogaji Abdulsalam) was caught last night at F1 Bar, Ikorodu by well-wishers and Ope’s friends. He has been moved to Panti Police Station,” Sadiku wrote.
“Please we want her to be buried and her killer to face the wrath of the law. Please, friends help me repost till it gets to the right table.
“My family does not have money, even his being caught was by the grace of God and the blood of my sister.”
