Gospel singer Timileyin Ajayi has admitted to the terrible murder of Salome Adaidu, his girlfriend. In an interview with AIT, Ajayi described how a disagreement over money turned into a fatal altercation.
Ajayi’s refusal to comply with Salome’s financial request sparked a dispute. She tragically died in the altercation, shocking the community and inciting outrage.
While Ajayi’s confession has sparked speculation about the underlying problems that preceded the incident, Salome’s family, who are grieving over the loss, has demanded justice. Since then, authorities have taken Ajayi into custody, and an investigation is being conducted to learn all the specifics of the case.
Speaking to AIT, Timileyin said, “That day, I invited her to come to my house, so she came. She was asking me for transport, and I said I don’t have. She now came. When she came, she was asking me for N3,000.”
“I told her, me too; I don’t have N3,000; I’m only managing myself. She said no problem; she will stay like that. She stayed, and I went to buy noodles.”
“She said she was hungry; I told her to relax that food is coming. She said no problem; she will wait for food to come. She waited, and her body temperature was rising because she was hungry.”
“She said I should prepare noodles for her. I asked her, let me see who you are chatting with. That was how the whole thing started. I cut her neck inside the room. That was it.”
“I told her to enter my bathroom. She entered. That was how the whole thing started. I told her to lie down and put her hand on the wash hand basin. She lay down there. I carried the neck and cut her neck. She was dragging, and I went on cutting her neck. That was it.”
