Ayomide Adeleye, a 200-level Philosophy student of Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ogun State, has been paraded by the Lagos State Police in connection with the murder of Christianah Idowu, a 300-level student of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta.
Aged 23 years old.

Adeleye’s criminal history began at age 15, when he raped a 14-year-old girl, leaving her in a coma. He went on to commit a string of heinous crimes, including killing his girlfriend and burying her in his father’s compound at just 17 in 2018. In 2020, he murdered his sister and buried her as well.
On August 19, 2024, Adeleye kidnapped Christianah, demanded a ransom, and killed her despite receiving payment. The military tracked Christianah’s phone to Adeleye’s residence, where they found him and discovered a shallow grave in his compound. He was handed over to the Lagos State Police by the 9 Brigade Nigerian Army on September 5, 2024, at 1400hrs.
Further investigation revealed Adeleye’s dark online presence, including his X account (former Twitter handle), “SK” (meaning SERIAL KILLER).
PERISCOPE NIGERIA reports that the apprehension of this serial killer brings relief to the community, and his crimes will now be brought to justice.
