One Afeez Odusanya, 33, on Wednesday, was paraded at the Amotekun base, of the Osun State Security Network, for allegedly “extracting tooth of dead bodies at a burial ground for ritual purposes.”

The suspected ritualist said he ventured into decapacitating dead bodies since 2016 for money rituals, which failed after two rites.

He explained that that he exhumed two dead bodies in 2016 and was caught after the third attempt at a burial ground in Ilesa town.

 “I was caught after I evacuated a corpse at a burial ground in Ilesha which I want to use for money rituals.

“I have been evacuating corpses since 2016 and removing their parts for money ritual purposes but the rites failed. I evacuated corpses at Sagamu, Ogun State but was caught in Osun while trying to remove the tooth of a corpse.

“It takes me about 30 minutes to remove the tooth from the corpse. It takes me lesser time with my previous experiences.

“I will advice other youths attempting to venture into money rituals to desist from it because it is not real,” the suspect said.

The Field Commandant of Amotekun, Comrade Amitolu Shittu, informed that the suspect would be handed over to the Police for further investigation and prosecution.
