Timileyin Ajayi, the Abuja gospel singer who murdered his girlfriend, Salome Adaidu, says he has no regret over the incident.
Ajayi was arrested in Nasarawa after he was allegedly caught with the severed head of Adaidu in a polythene bag.
The incident occurred on Sunday in Agwan Sarki, Orozo, near the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
In an interview with Channels, Ajayi alleged that Adaidu was cheating on him and that he discovered her infidelity after seeing her phone.
The singer said he confronted Adaidu who denied the allegations before she apologised.
Ajayi said he used a knife to attack Adaidu after an argument escalated.
The singer also showed no remorse, saying “life is reciprocal”. He argued that he was not arrested but surrendered himself to security operatives.
“I didn’t plan to kill her. She is always cheating, she hides most things from me. I discovered she was cheating when I saw her phone, so I got angry seeing her chat with other guys, and that’s why I killed her,” he said.
“I do not have any regrets. I do not regret my actions because life is reciprocal. I caught her cheating on me. I told her about it but she denied it until I showed her the chat.
“She admitted and apologised. So, she went to the bathroom, she started some things and I couldn’t take it lightly. I went to the room, took a knife, I held her neck and I did what I had to do.
“I was not caught, I surrendered myself. If I did not want anybody to catch me, I would have done that; it is very simple. It is not a big thing to pay, I’m ready to face the wrath of the law.”
However, Esther Adaidu, Salome’s sister, denied that her sister was in a relationship with Ajayi. She argued that it was the first time she had seen him.
The remains of Salome were buried on Monday night.
