Police operatives in Ogun State have arrested the suspected killers of a former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) official, Kehinde Fatinoye, his wife, and son in the state.

Fatinoye and his wife were killed by a group of unknown gunmen shortly after they returned from the Crossover Service in Abeokuta, the state capital, on December 31, 2022.

The assailants also set fire to the building and whisked the son to an unknown destination.

The boy’s remains were discovered in a river a few days after the incident.
