The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, has confirmed that it has commenced the extradition process of an Instagram influencer, Benjamin Nnanyereugo popularly known as KillaBoi, who has been arrested by Sierra Leonian authorities following complaints that he killed his late girlfriend, Augusta Osedion.
Hundeyin revealed this on Saturday, in an exclusive telephone interview with our correspondent.
“We have commenced the extradition process to bring KillaBoi into custody in Nigeria,” Hundeyin noted.
Our correspondent gathered that KillaBoi was nabbed at a night club in Free Town on Friday, after changing his name to Kanu Princeton Samuel, and spending over $25,000 purchasing a Sierra Leonean passport and trying to survive in the West African country known for the white-sand beaches lining the Freetown Peninsula.
Meanwhile, his photo had been posted on social media by the deceased’s family, leading a Sierra Leonean who identified him to contact popular human rights lawyer, Femi Falana SAN, who informed the Lagos Police Command that had earlier declared him wanted.
