Police boss said their efforts paid off on August 30, 2018, around 11pm by Ogun River bank, when three of them surfaced with their supposed victim, Ganiu.

He said, “On getting to the river bank, the three men grabbed the fourth person, who is the youngest among them, laid him on the ground and were about to slaughter him like a lamb when policemen swooped on them.”

The suspects were arrested with a polythene bags they confessed they would have put the mutilated body parts of Ganiu. But for God, if they had succeeded Ganiu’s body parts would have been put in the polythene.

Upon interrogation, the herbalist confessed that it was one Alfa who asked him to get a heart and two hands.

He said the 50-year-old cleric promised that the human parts would be used for ritual and would fetch them N11m.

He said, “It is true that I am an herbalist, but it was this alfa who asked me to get a human heart and hands.

“initially, I did not want to do it, but he promised that we would get N11m from the ritual.

“At first, we attempted to kidnap a boy, who escaped before I decided to use my apprentice, Ganiu.

“But during our attempt to slaughter Ganiu, the police caught and arrested us.”

However, Edun the Alfa denied having a hand in the conspiracy, arguing that he had never killed a chicken, let alone a human being.

The limping alfa, who spoke in Yoruba, said, “I know nothing about what he said; I am being framed.”

Iliyasu also paraded 16 other suspects for armed robbery and threat to life.
