The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the suspect popularly known as Small JPron, was arrested and presented to newsmen on Aug. 24, 2016.

He then confessed to have killed two persons since joining the Eye confraternity in 2009.

According to the  Commissioner of Police, Mr Fatai Owoseni, the suspect who mysteriously got out of prison in November 2016 following his arrest in Aug. 2016, is a notorious cultist.

The suspect, however, said that he had since dissociated himself from the group following his several arrests by the police.

“I am no longer a member of any cult group since my mother warned me and cried all day.

“I did not jump bail and I always report to court whenever  I have a case to answer,” he said.
