Suspects: Herbalist asked us to kill ex-FUTA’s VC

One of the suspected killers of Prof Albert Ilemobade, former vice-chancellor of the Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA), Olayemi Bamitale, said they acted on the instruction of a herbalist.

 Bamitale and his accomplice, Daniel Ita, were paraded yesterday by the Ondo State Police Commissioner, Mr Isaac Eke, for the alleged killing of the professor of Veterinary Medicine. 
The suspect said Ita informed him that the herbalist he consulted earlier said Ilemobade must be murdered for the robbery to be successful.
Bamitale, however, said he was prepared to die for his crime. He said he knew that “the wages of sin is death”. 
The suspect added that since he was guilty of the murder of the 79-year-old professor, he was ready to face the consequence which, according to him, is death. 
The 36-year-old man admitted that he was the one who strangled Ilemobade on the night of Sunday last week. He, however, blamed it on the security man, Ita, who mooted the idea that they could make money if they could steal the late professor’s car.
