By Matthew Atungwu
The Oyo State Police on Friday paraded a 45-year-old alleged ritualist, Hassan Kolawole along with a fresh human head.
Kolawole and nine other people who had been detained for different offenses at various sites around the state were paraded at the command headquarters in Eleyele by the state commissioner of police, Adebola Hamzat.
The suspect admitted to the crime in an interview with journalists, saying that a Muslim cleric gave him the fresh human head and two hands that were discovered in his possession.

Kolawole said, “I have one wife and two children and things are very hard for me in taking good care of them. I met one Waheed, who is also an Islamic cleric at a Maolud. We discussed it and he told me that he knew how to do money rituals that would require the use of human parts.”
In a related development, nine people who had been arrested in other parts of the state were also paraded for charges that included theft, cultism, murder, and kidnapping.
