A suspected member of the dreaded Badoo cult group has been arrested after smashing a lady’s head at the Ori-Oke branch of a white garment church at Irapade area of Agbowa Lagos.
The suspect, Ahmed Adeleke, 29, who disguised as a worshipper, attended the church’s vigil, during which a female member, who was sleeping at a corner of the church, was heard shouting that she had been attacked.
Some church members went in the direction and reportedly found the suspect changing his clothes.
He was said to have denied the allegation. But on further observation, the white garment which he pulled off was discovered to be blood stained.
Parading the suspect yesterday at the Police Officers Mess, Ikeja, the Lagos State Command boss, Fatai Owoseni said: “Policemen from Ipakodo Division rushed to the church.
The suspect, however, denied being a Badoo member.
He said: “I was a Muslim, but later converted to Christianity. I live at 9, Ojokoro Street, Agric. I was invited to worship there that night by a senior colleague, Kehinde, at the tailoring shop where I work.”
However, asked if Kehinde had come to identify him, he shook his head in the negative, saying “how would she come? She may be afraid of being arrested as well.”
