A 20-year-old boy identified as Eyitoluwa Olayeye, has been arrested by the Austin Police Department for reportedly killing his mother.
Eyitoluwa, a University of Texas student was arrested after the police responded to a emergency call made by the Holiday Inn Express at 805 Neches St. just before 5 a.m. on Wednesday November 6.
48-year-old Kehinde Olayeye had flown to Austin from Georgia with her sister to visit Eyitoluwa on Tuesday November 5, after he was released from Dell Seton medical center where he underwent a psychiatric evaluation for touching someone inappropriately at University of Texas library.
Kehinde’s sister told the police that the suspect kept saying “I pray that God brings us together” on phone before his friends told his mother what happened on campus, prompting the unplanned visit to Austin. His aunt also said the boy told them that the hospital was trying to hold him because of a mental issue, but he “just told them what they wanted to hear so they would let him go.”
A security guard at the Holiday Inn told investigators he heard loud noises coming from Eyitoluwa’s room around 4:30 a.m and asked them to keep it down. But he said the noises grew louder and it sounded like people were fighting and banging on the wall.
The policemen found him lying on the back of his mother who was face down on the floor. “A bloody pillow was observed inside the room,” the affidavit revealed. Austin-Travis County EMS medics tried to resuscitate Kehinde Olayeye but she was pronounced dead at 6:12 a.m.
Eyitoluwa who had wounds on his left elbow and bicep, a swelling on the right side of his face and a bruise on the inside of his right bicep told the police he is a junior at UT and went to class on Tuesday. He told investigators he was in class at UT on Tuesday, played basketball at the rec center, and then went to the UT Tower to pray.
Eyitoluwa also told investigators that he remembered being taken to the hotel by his aunt and mother, lying on the bed with his mother who prayed for him before finding himself at the back of a police car with no idea of how he got there.
Eyitoluwa Olayeye is currently charged with aggravated assault and a second-degree felony as it was further gathered that his late mother suffered a deep skull hemorrhaging, hemorrhaging around the neck, lacerations to her inner mouth and petechial hemorrhaging, as well as soft signs of strangulation.

A Nigerian lady on twitter with the handle @Nnadede, has rubbished claims of the existence of ‘Magun’, a charm which causes a man to get stuck to a woman he’s having coitus with.
The lady said there’s no such thing as juju or charm in a case like that and she gave a scientific name for the rare occurence – Penis Captivus.
Her tweets read ;
It’s not village people, juju or charm. Penis captivus is a rare occurrence during sexual intercourse when the muscles in the vagina clamp down on the penis much more firmly than usual, making it impossible for the penis to be withdrawn from the vagina.
Penis captivus occurs more frequently in animals than it does in humans. And it’s not uncommon to see animals that “are stuck together” after sex, particularly dogs
If a partner feels penis captivus starting to happen, they should try to stay calm. Added stress can lead to more muscular tension, which can make the phenomenon last longer. It is important not to try to force the penis out of the vagina. Doing so can hurt one or both partners.
“I must tell you it is no myth,” wrote one woman who asked to remain anonymous. “It happened to my late husband and myself one night. He literally could not withdraw…I attributed it to the intensity of the vaginal muscle response during orgasm.”

‘I loved you with every atom and molecule that make up my body. I will always love you. Our relationship was one of the greatest love stories I will remember. Thank you for being in my life and thank you for showing me how much I could love someone.’
‘Although we went out separate ways a little bit ago I will always be grateful for you, for the laughs and lessons we had, for every touch we shared and I will always love you.
‘I’m sick to my stomach writing this and I wish this was all just a bad dream. I’m speechless and I wish I had more to say, I do but I can’t seem to put the right ones together. Praying for your family. I wish I could have seen you one last time. I wish this wasn’t real. Rest softly and peacefully sweet boy.’
On Sunday night ( Nov.10), Drake was booed off stage at Tyler, the Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw festival in Los Angeles, as he was brought on stage as a surprise headliner.
The bitter crowd who were said to be expecting Frank Ocean made their feelings clear when the Canadian rapper stormed the stage.

The unhappy crowd who clearly didn’t want him to keep going began to loudly boo him. “If you want to keep going,” he said again, “I will keep going tonight.”
As the scream of “no” got louder, Drake said: “It’s been love,” he said as he left the stage, ending his performance 20 minutes early. “I love ya’ll. I go by the name of Drake. Thank you for having me.”
Taking to Instagram to address the embarrassing moment, the rapper dropped a major plot twist as he revealed he has signed a 10 year residency at Camp Flog Gnaw, where he was booed and will be performing every single year at the festival for the ‘kids’ until they turn 30.

Equally arrested along with Dauda who is also the Chairman of ASD motors, was the judge of Magan jingari Sharia court in Kaduna north local government area, Murtala Nasir who consummated the marriage held on Saturday, November 9, 2019 and Shehu Dauda, one of the sons of Alhaji Sani Dauda..
The three of them were arrested on Monday, November 11, and are being detained at the Special Anti Robbery Squad office of the Kaduna state police command .
According to lawyer to the accused persons, Sani Katu, the arrest of the accused persons was allegedly masterminded by former husband of Nasiba Dauda, one Abubakar Musa Abubakar who claimed to be a close associate of the Inspector general of police , Abubakar Adamu.
He said that Abubakar, who was not happy with the second marriage between Nasiba Sani Dauda and her new husband, boasted that he wiiuse his connection with the Inspector general of police to deal with whoever was involved in the consummation of the marriage.
The Sharia court judge however, explained that they were arrested for conducting a new marriage between Abdulllahi Kaluma and Nasiba Sani Dauda , the daughter of Alhaji Sani Dauda on Saturday, November 9, 2019, after her first marriage with Abubakar Musa Abubakar from Kebbi state was officially collapsed on 5th January , 2018.
He explained that the marriage followed due process in line with Islamic laws and the Nigerian Constitution ..
On his part , Alhaji Sani Dauda explained that he gave out his daughter to her new husband after she had officially divorced her first husband, Abubakar Musa Abubakar since January 2018.
He explained that Abubakar who claimed to have a close relationship with the IGP , vowed to deal with him even when there was an existing divorce certificate between him and his daughter Nasiba dated 5th January 2018.
” The marriage between Nasiba, the daughter of Alhaji Sani Dauda, the chairman of ASD motors and her former husband, Abubakar Musa Abubakar ended since January 5,2018. And since then, there was no problem, or was there any existing order restraining her or her family from conducting a new marriage . So, on Saturday, November 9, I conducted a new marriage between Nasiba and her new husband, Abdullahi kullama.
Surprisingly, on Monday November 11, at about 4pm, I was with Alhaji Sani Dauda and many others at his compound when police operatives surrounded his compound, saying they were there to arrest us on the order of rhw inspector general of police, Abubakar Adamu.
The officers invited us verbally to the police command headquarters without any warrant of arrest. Later on , we transfered to the Special Anti Robbery Squad office, where we were detained allegedly on the orders of the Inspector general of police until further notice”.
