She said, “Yesterday afternoon somebody called to inform us that a decomposing corpse was found at St Theresa’s, close to St Peter’s in Akure.
“When the police got there to remove the corpse, some people came around and identified him as the director we had been searching for in the past three days.
“It was his suit they used to identify him, but his head had been cut off and his chest ripped open with his intestines removed.
“Investigation has started, his phone was left behind and some other things too. So, we are going to work with what we have to know if he had issues with anybody.”
