Suspected Ibadan serial killer, Sunday Shodipe who escaped from police custody on August 18 has revealed how he fled the Mokola Police Station in Ibadan, Oyo State.
Shodipe explained that he escaped when the police officer on duty was distracted.
Speaking to newsmen, he said;
“The new female DPO asked officer Funsho to allow me take my bath. He cautioned me not to try to escape when I am taking my bath.
“I escaped when I saw him discussing with another person. I climbed the borehole pole and jumped the fence. The people living in the area saw me when I escaped but they did not raise any alarm.”
The suspect was re-arrested on Sunday August 23, at Iwo Road by a group with the additional aid of a tactical team who had previously worked with the Special Adviser on Security Matters to Governor Makinde, Fatai Owoseni in Akure.
He was trailed to where he buys and smokes hemp in Ibadan, but wasn’t arrested there because of the crowd in the area. He was later arrested in his hideout.
