A Nigerian man in Ogun State has been arrested for handing over his friend to a ritualist in exchange for ₦5,000. The ritualist later sold the victim’s head for ₦20,000.
A post on X (formerly Twitter) that went viral and featured video of multiple suspects being paraded by the police brought attention to the startling incident.
Each of them allegedly admitted to their involvement in the heinous murder.
According to reports, the suspect misled his friend by promising him a farm job.
However, upon arriving at the location, he allegedly gave the green light for his friend to be killed.
The act was then performed by the ritualist, who afterwards sold the victim’s head for ₦20,000.
The herbalist who was the mastermind was also made to confess in the video.
As the post went viral, worried people expressed their shock and outrage at the disturbing revelation in the comment section.

@waxdigitals: “This is unbelievable—taking a human life for just ₦20,000? Pure wickedness. Kidnapping and killings seem to revolve around Ogun State. And these Alfas… Let no one preach that Islam is a religion of peace. The Yoruba Traditional Council needs to act fast!”
