Operatives of the Odeda Division of the Ogun State Police Command have arrested Akintoye Waris for allegedly stealing and slaughtering a Savannah he-goat worth N200,000 to mark his child’s naming ceremony.

The Police Command’s spokesperson, Omolola Odutola, disclosed to Punch on Saturday that the arrest occurred on January 2, 2024, in the Odeda area of the state. Waris was apprehended alongside his accomplice, Ajayi Yusuf.

According to the police, the suspects reportedly targeted a farm in the area, ensuring that the farm owner, identified only as Mark, had taken the cattle for grazing on December 25.

However, upon Mark’s return, he discovered one of the goats was missing, prompting a community-wide search.

Odutola explained that villagers later confirmed spotting the two suspects transporting the missing goat on a motorcycle, heading toward Olodo town.

Acting on this tip-off, detectives swiftly mobilised, leading to the suspects’ arrest in the early hours of January 2, 2025.

She said, “During interrogation, the suspects confessed to the crime, explaining how they stole, transported, and later slaughtered the he-goat on December 27, 2024.”

“They disclosed that the goat was used to prepare food for the naming ceremony of Akintoye Waris’s daughter, which was held at Olodo.”

Odutola further stated that both suspects remain in custody as investigations continue at the Divisional Crime Branch.

She assured residents that the suspects would face prosecution upon the conclusion of investigations and promised to provide updates on further developments.

“The suspects are currently in custody and undergoing further investigation at the Divisional Crime Branch.”

If not stupidity enhanced with peer pressure, why will someone steal for his child's naming ceremony? Must you offer people food before you can give your child a name?

I keep telling people that it is very wrong to blame theft on poverty. This man did not steal to pay hospital bills or to feed his family. He stole a goat just to host a party. How can you blame his action on poverty? If you blame his action on poverty, that means you will blame poverty when a rich man who feeds well and owns mansions steals to acquire a private jet.

Reminds me of a guy...

That had a small farm house opposite my poultry farm some time ago.

This guy jumped the fence into another pig farm in the area and stole a big adult pig. He and his wife cooked and ate everything throwing the intestines and other parts into the bush.

I came to the farm that morning and a sweet, pleasant and inviting aroma was all over... In the air. I was wondering what's up.


Only for me to learn later in the evening that a pig was stolen from the other farm. Immediately I heard that I knew who the thief was.

Police was invited and did their investigation and the guy was later arrested and sent to prison(even though he begged while the case was in court and the owner later forgave and let the matter die.)

He took the police to the place where he killed and hide the other unedible parts of the animal.

At the time the police arrested him in the evening he and his wife had finished a full adult pot of pork meat.

I can't even eat 3 pieces of pork without throwing up.

I just felt it was a useless, Needless and unnecessary crime at the time.

The extent some people can go! undecided

Lies. He stole because he is a thief nothing more or less. Naming ceremony is a way to curry sympathy.

Unnecessary pressure has render many people useless than other obvious reasons.

In 2012 when I did the naming ceremony of my first daughter, I remember vividly that I bought one chicken to be fried and shared with soft drinks and aftermath I bought 2 vino tinto for the shayo people and everyone was okay for all I care.

Now millions is resting in the account that I opened for my babygirl that will clock 13 this year.

Can we say police actually acted swiftly, since the goat was not retrieve between 25 and 27, but on the second of January when the goat has been slaughter

Why are poor people so obsessed with having kids when they can knack without having kids. Government should introduce a law that only the rich like Dangote should be allowed to have kids
