A heartbreaking incident has left residents of Ojoo in shock after the body of 26-year-old Precious Mogaji was discovered lifeless in the early hours of March 7, 2026, right in front of her boyfriend’s room in the Oguntula area of Ojoo, Ibadan.
According to the Oyo State Police Command, officers from the Ojoo Division received a distress call around 5:00 a.m. from a good Samaritan who found the young woman lying motionless at the entrance. Police quickly responded, documented the scene, and moved her body to a hospital morgue where an autopsy is being conducted to establish the exact cause of death.
Initial rumors spread rapidly on social media, with some claiming the incident involved a man hiding his wife’s body in a car trunk in Akobo. The police have firmly debunked these reports, confirming the location as Oguntula in Ojoo—not Akobo—and clarifying that the victim was not married to the suspect.
The primary suspect is Precious’s 29-year-old boyfriend, Quadri Mohammed, who has been missing since the body was discovered. Sources close to the investigation indicate that Mohammed may be a former NYSC corps member who stayed back in the area after his service. The Oyo State Police Command has launched a manhunt and is appealing to the public for any information that could lead to his whereabouts.
Reports from those familiar with the couple suggest the relationship had been troubled and toxic for some time. Precious reportedly kept returning to Quadri despite the issues. On the night of her death, it is believed she had gone back to his place intending to pack her belongings and end the relationship for good.
This case once again highlights the dangers women face in abusive and volatile relationships. Many are calling for greater awareness, support systems, and swift justice in cases of domestic violence that escalate tragically.
The Oyo State Police Command urges anyone with useful information about Quadri Mohammed’s location to contact the nearest police station or the Ojoo Division immediately. Report Naija stands with the family of Precious Mogaji and demands justice for her untimely death.
No life should end like this. Domestic violence is never acceptable—reach out for help before it’s too late. If you or someone you know is in a dangerous situation, seek support from trusted authorities or organizations.
