Assassinated CBN Couple’s Son Found Dead In Ogun River
72 hours after a couple, Kehinde and Bukola Fatinoye, were assassinated, the corpse of their son, Oreoluwa Fatinoye, has been recovered from the Ogun river.
The couple were murdered by yet-to-be-identified hoodlums in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, on New Year’s Day, shortly after they returned from the 2023 crossover church service.
The killers also burnt their corpses and house, located within the Ibara Government Reservation Area, Abeokuta.
Kehinde worked with the Central Bank of Nigeria, while his wife, Bukola, worked with the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta.
Punch reports that their housemaid and Oreoluwa were abducted during the incident and thrown into a river along the Adigbe-Obada Road, Abeokuta.
Some divers were subsequently hired by the state police command to search for the bodies.
Oreoluwa’s decomposing remains were recovered on Tuesday after floating on the river.

According to the fisherman, Taiwo Idowu who discovered the body while preparing for the day’s work said, “On Monday, we heard that someone was thrown into this river, but this morning while we were preparing for work, the police approached us and pleaded with us to inform them any time we discovered the body.
“This morning, around 7.30, we discovered the body while we were checking our equipment in the river. I called someone to help us get the number of the police spokesman to tell him that we have discovered the body.
“Not long after, the police a we showed them the body after we brought it to the river bank.”
Onyxnewsng gathered that the corpse was later taken away in the presence of family members of the victim.
