Odeh and one other female victim were reportedly conveyed by an unidentified motorcyclist who raped and killed them last Tuesday. Their corpses were found on Thursday on the road where the suspect dumped them.

Expressing concerns over the killings, Oyeyemi said, “The modus operandi of the serial killer is to pretend as a commercial motorcyclist popularly known as “Okada” and pick his targeted victims as passengers. Such victims who are mainly women will be taken to an isolated area, raped and brutally murdered in cold blood.
