Law enforcement authorities in Lagos State have initiated a search for two individuals implicated in the alleged m£rder of a woman in the Ikoyi district.

The police command identified the wanted persons as two males from Ibadan, Oyo State, and publicised their descriptions and last known addresses through official communication channels on Wednesday.

Although the victim’s identity was not disclosed, authorities stated that the suspects allegedly conspired with accomplices to att@ck the woman, resulted in her d£ath, and subsequently relocated her remains to an undisclosed location whilst appropriating her possessions.

The first suspect is described as a 32-year-old of Yoruba ethnicity with an oval facial structure, dark complexion and average stature.

The second suspect, aged 33, is characterised as thin-framed, fair-complexioned and approximately 5.9 feet in height, with distinctive facial features including a pointed chin.

Police urged members of the public possessing information regarding either individual’s whereabouts to relay such intelligence to the nearest police installation or to the command’s criminal investigation division headquarters located in central Lagos.

A dedicated telephone contact was provided for tip submission.

Authorities cautioned citizens against independent action should they encounter the suspects, emphasising the necessity of notifying law enforcement instead.
