According to a statement by the spokesman of the Lagos State Police Command, SP Chike Oti, the pastor was killed in the early hours of Sunday.
Kanayo was said to have been killed at about 7am in Offin, Igbogbo, a suburb of Ikorodu town.
Kanayo pastors the Fingers of God Parish, Igbogbo.
Oti said some arrests have been made in respect of the murder, with the suspects being questioned with a view to discovering the brain behind the heinous crime.
The Commissioner of Police for Lagos State, Edgal Imohimi, was also said to have dispatched a team of crack detectives to unravel those behind the murder, dig into the past of the victim and see if there is a correlation between his past and his killing.
Oti said in the statement: “The issue of his past before he became a born again Christian is of interest to the police because of a human skull tattoo drawn on his left arm, which gives the victim away as one who may have belonged to any of the dreaded cult groups.”
