A former Vice Chancellor of the Federal University of Technology, Akure, Prof. Albert Ilemobade, has been discovered killed by his gateman and driver.
The discovery was made on Sunday when the body of Ilemobade was found in his car park.
The driver and gateman were simply identified as Yemi and Daniel respectively.
They reportedly killed the former VC in his bedroom, took the body to his car park and poured diesel on it so that the odour from the decomposing body would not be detected on time.
Yemi and Daniel were arrested in Ogun State while trying to sell Ilemobade’s car.
A member of Ilemobade’s family, Venerable Ayodeji Fagbemi, told newsmen that some policemen from the Ogun State Police Command called him after church on Sunday to come to the Ijapo, Akure residence of the late don.
Fagbemi said when he got there with some people, he met Yemi and Daniel leading police detectives to the car park where they dumped the body.
He said: “They (driver and gateman) confessed that they were the ones that killed the late Vice Chancellor and poured diesel on him so that the odour of the decomposing body could not be detected on time.
“Policemen had removed the remains to the mortuary for further investigation.”
