The owner of Hilton Hotel and Resort, Ile-Ife, Ramon Adedoyin, has denied involvement in the death of a Master’s student at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Timothy Adegoke.

Adedoyin, who is currently detained by Osun State Police Command over Adegoke’s death, noted that he did not connive with his workers or anyone to kill the student.

According to him, he first heard about Adegoke when police declared him missing.

The PUNCH had reported that Adegoke went to Ile-Ife to sit an exam at the OAU Distance Learning Centre, Moro campus, when he was declared missing on November 7.

Adegoke’s body was discovered after some suspects, including workers at the hotel, were arrested by the police.

It was learnt that Adegoke had lodged in Hilton hotel located in Ile-Ife, Osun State between October 22 and November 5, 2021, before he was later declared missing.

The student was reported missing on Saturday, November 6 when he was not found at his exam hall and could not be reached by his wife and other family .

The police later announced that the student had been found dead without giving details of how, when, and where he was found.

Adegoke was said to have lodged in the hotel on Friday, November 5 preceding his examinations scheduled for Saturday, November 6, and Sunday, November 7.

Adedoyin, who spoke in Yoruba, stated that he worked hard for his wealth, urging people not to tag him as a “money ritualist or murderer”.

In an audio message obtained by our correspondent and confirmed by one of his aides, the hotel owner appealed to the public to await police investigation on the matter.

He said, “I, Rahmon Adedoyin is not a murderer or money ritualist. God already blessed and enriched me since I was 26 years old and up till now that I am 65 years old.

“I have never killed anyone. I am a devout Muslim. Adegoke lodged at Hilton Hotel, Room 305. The hotel officials that lodged him did not pay any money in his name into the hotel’s .

“There was also no record that he paid into the hotel’s WEMA Bank . I don’t know how he was given a room without making payment into the official of the company. I don’t know why they decided to receive the payment into their personal .

“I was only informed that something like that happened at the Hilton Hotel when police started searching for Timothy.

“When they (police) investigated and found where Timothy’s corpse was dumped, senior police officers checked his body and confirmed that no part of his body was missing, so it is clear that no one asked them to get any of his body parts.

“I appeal to everyone to be patient and allow police to do their work and thorough investigation.

“I had my humble beginning from Ile-Ife. I started as a home lesson teacher, started universal college of tech, a polytechnic and then university.

“I never left Ile-Ife before God blessed me and made me rich. My wealth is pure. I am not spending blood money.”

Adedoyin and his worker, Adedeji Adesola, were earlier accused of being involved in the disappearance of Adegoke.

It was learnt that the hotel worker initially denied that Adegoke lodged in the hotel until evidence surfaced that he paid into Adesola’s .

However, Osun State Police Command on Thursday said no part of the deceased missed when the corpse was exhumed.

Featuring during a programme monitored on Fresh FM, in Osogbo on Thursday, the command’s Spokesperson, Yemisi Opalola, also said Adedoyin was arrested after investigation revealed that the late Adegoke checked into the facility before he was declared missing.

Opalola, who also claimed the corpse of the deceased was exhumed in the presence of his family , said the remains were later deposited at the morgue of Obafemi Awolowo University, Teaching Hospital, Ile-Ife for autopsy.

The PUNCH had also reported that the hotel had been shut down.

Deaths upon deaths under the lifeless regime

The manager also serve as the Alfa spiritualist. He was part of suspect arrested

Something is fishy..

Can't tell me this is a one time occurrence.

TBH the MD may not have a hand in this. It's very possible that the staffers have been robbing him by having customers pay directly into their and not ing the transaction so as to conceal their crimes. However, after realizing that the said young man had died, the quickly buried him[size=8pt][/size] in a shallow grave and because there are no record of him lodging in the hotel, they felt they can get away with it . Meanwhile, let's wait and see the outcome of the autopsy

As much as we can't make hasty conclusion while investigation is still ongoing! My own fear is who buried the man ? Where was he buried ? If it's true that he was exhumed from the hotel compound , then the chairman is not saying the truth ! No worker will have such audacity to dig 6 grave, buried someone there without the knowledge of the owner of the hotel ! All these saying that his body part was complete doesn't mean he still can't he used for ritual purpose ! We've heard many stories where people go to the cemetery to get body part of a long dead human being ! Me just tire die Naija sef! Travelling on the road is a risk, using the rail line is a risk! Flying us a risk! So checking into hotel now should be added to one of the 1000 ways of dying in Nigeria ! Nawa o

So they would burry someone in order to save their ill-goten 37k?? The money doesn't watch the stress and agony they'd through nah. They'd better return the money to proper .
There's nothing else to doubt,his co-perpetrators have confessed already, the man is a ritualist,why was he trying to frustrate the investigation

Really? I pray may all those involved be punished by not just the law but by nature

The bubble is about to explode to something bigger. The receptionist has already sang like a canary.

Let's wait for the autopsy.

Someone has to be careful, even doing basic things in this country is turning into a puzzle.

May the soul of the departed rest in perfect peace, and the killers brought to justice.

This is really sad.

I know he's going to deny it....we are watching how this story unfold



Check my signature and profile for my work

We know, but he was your guest...and it was your hotel.

Eweeeyyyy!

Something sounds fishy

Hmmm

That is very difficult to believe.

My signature, my business. Thank you.

You look like today’s bread

O

I how the police is able to get the truth in this case.

This school is one of the useless schools in Nigeria, the school can frustrate your life.

Ok

Keep dreaming

Actually I did not read the post but I think the girl has no right to beat up her boyfriend in public. Maybe they should report the matter to their village elders but if the neighbour refuse to pay his rent they should just kill the landlord and forget about the missing car.

that's too bad. I hope the perpetrators are duly investigated and given capital punishment.
