Our correspondent gathered that the local vigilance group in Ijebu Ode, Obanta Safe and Secure Vigilance Group arrested the man after a tip off by the residents who have been suspecting the man for some weeks.
Narrating the incident to our correspondent in their office in Itoro, the Secretary of the group, Comrade Yemi Odukoya disclosed that they had laid ambush for the man for almost two weeks after some residents of the community complained about him.
According to the vigilance scribe, "the vigilance group from the town came to complain to us about the man. They accused him of dealing in human skulls as he is a herbalist.We told them to continue monitoring him as we also sent our surveillance team to work with them over there. Luck ran out on him around 12.30 a.m. when we swooped on him at his house and found two skulls, one male and the other female.We have handed him over to the police to continue the investigation."
The man while speaking with our correspondent confirmed that he has been procuring human skulls for some years now, claiming that it was being used for money rituals."
I am a farmer and a herbalist too. I belong to Jawesola Traditional Group and I have been fully involved about seven years ago since the death of my father. We normally get the heads from the burial ground and I operated alone. I don't have any accomplices.The skulls are used along with some herbs to make money rituals for our customers.
These two heads were cut off during the weekend."
