Ademola who was paraded before newsmen in by the state police command, said he never knew the Oba would die when he stabbed him.

Ademola who spoke with a very good command of English, said it was while they were communicating that the monarch attacked him and then he stabbed the monarch with a knife.

Earlier, the commissioner of police had told journalists that he did not believe Omoniyi was an insane person going by his conduct and actions so far. According to him, it is illogical to think that a man said to be a mad person would kill a whole Oba with a knife and choose to escape into the bush and later travelled down to Ado Ekiti where he was later arrested.
