The incident occurred on Sunday in Agwan Sarki, Orozo, near the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

The suspect’s arrest was facilitated by an intelligence tip-off, leading security agents to an uncompleted building in the area. The severed head was found in a polythene bag.

During interrogation, Ajayi, who also poses as a motivational speaker on TikTok, confessed to the crime.

In a now-viral video, he revealed that he had dated Salome Adaidu for one year before her death. In his defense, he claimed they engaged in a heated fight, and she tried to stab him with a knife.

Ajayi, who released his album ‘God of the Earth’ in 2020, also revealed that the rest of the victim’s body was at his residence.

A man who identifies himself as Caleb Umaru, a member of the Nasarawa community, also spoke about the incident via a Facebook post.

“I got the shock of my life as we apprehend a Yahoo ritual with a human head (his girlfriend) inside a nylon close to our church as we were holding service,” he wrote.

“I thought I just used to watch things like this until I experienced one “Live” today.

“And this guy said the remaining body of the girl is still in his house. God have mercy on this generation.”
