Also arrested and paraded for the act were Akinwunmi Ifatosin, Sherifff Agbai, and Osojieahen Alioneitouria, who are both from Uromi in Esan West Local Government Area of Edo State.
The police boss described them as a gang of hardened criminals involved in ritual killings and the large-scale sale of human parts.
The investigation began on January 9, 2024, when the DPO of Onipanu Divisional headquarters of the Nigeria Police in Atan-Ota received the report of a missing 35-year-old Sulaimon Adijat. Adijat had been invited on a date and has not been seen since, with her mobile phone switched off.
A tactical team of the police, specifically the Anti-Kidnapping Unit of the Command, was drafted to unravel the mystery behind her disappearance, leading to the arrest of the seven suspects who participated actively in the abduction and eventual murder of Sulaimon Adijat.
“The investigation revealed that on 19th November, 2023, one Sherifff Agbai ‘m’, and Osojieahen Alioneitouria ‘m’ contacted Oluwo Samuel Monday ‘m’ a.k.a Oluwo Mandela to perform money ritual known as ‘Oshole’ that can produce Two Hundred Million naira within seven days,” said Alamutu.
“Adebayo Olawale Azeez ‘m’ invited one Sulaiman Adijat ‘f’ on a date to Sunshine hotel, Atan Ota, and she was later taken to Abidemi Moses shrine at Igbo Olomi area of Atan Ota, Ogun State,” he continued.
“Prophet Jamiu Yusuf further contacted one Abidemi Moses ‘m’ a.k.a. Asela, who is a herbalist at Atan Ota, Ogun State. Abidemi Moses ‘m’ requested for the sum of Six Hundred thousand naira to get a lady that can be used for the money ritual,” Alamutu added.
The CP stressed the severity of the charges, highlighting the gang’s involvement in ritual killings and the gruesome trade of human body parts.
