I killed and sold four siblings heads for N32,000

A suspected human parts dealer, Agboola Kolawole, made a startling confession to the Lagos State Police Command yesterday. He told security operatives how he killed four of his siblings, sold their heads at N8,000 each, and invested the proceeds in his illicit trade.

He was among three other suspects who allegedly specialised in the sourcing, distribution and sale of human parts, who were arrested by operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), of the Command.
The suspects – Ajibade Rafiu (30), Fatai Akiwowo (30), Kazeem Sanni (25) and Kolawole (40) – were paraded by the Command’s spokesperson, Ngozi Braide, a Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP), yesterday, at the Command Headquarters, Ikeja.

One of the suspects, Jamiu Adeleke (40) allegedly died while trying to escape after his arrest. He allegedly attempted to jump off a moving vehicle while taking operatives to the home of Funsho Alabi and other buyers of his “goods” at Owode-Egbado, Ogun State. Adeleke allegedly sustained injuries and was rushed to a General Hospital where he died.

Kolawole said: “I killed two of my brothers and two sisters and sold their heads for N8, 000 each. I also roasted some of their parts which I ate before I buried them in a grave in our compound. I used them to improve on my business.”

Braide said the late Adeleke was arrested by operatives in Owode town, Ogun State, with a human head while trying to sell it to somebody for N120,000.
She said: “When he was arrested, he confessed that Sanni sold the human head to him for N6, 000. Sanni confessed that he had earlier supplied two human heads to another dealer, Akiwowo.

“Akiwowo also confessed that apart from the two he bought from Sanni, he had bought four human heads from Kolawole. When police operatives arrested him, he confessed that he killed two of his brothers and two of his sisters and cut off their heads which he sold. We also arrested the final buyer/receiver of the human heads, Rafiu, a herbalist. Detectives also recovered a drink of ground human head mixed with gin in a bottle from the herbalist’s home.

“The suppliers confessed that they got human parts from various graveyards in Ogun State. They claimed they sold human heads for N8, 000; hands for N6, 000 and private parts for N10, 000. The middlemen in the illicit business would double the prize and sell to the herbalist, the end user. Sanni confessed that two Alhajis in Owode had bought one head from him and also requested a living human being at the rate of N40, 000. He was arrested while in search of the living being.”

Rafiu said he bought the person he used for concoction for N17, 000 and roast his meat for his customers to drink beer and palm-wine with. He added that he sold each tumbler of the concoction for N20, 000, adding that whoever drank it would have all his wishes fulfilled within a week.
Akinwowo said: “I am a native doctor. It was Alfa Jamiu, who is now late, who sent me to buy human parts for him. I normally bought skulls from people dug graves and steal human parts, especially, bones, at cemeteries. The bones would be ground to powder by the late Jamiu who mixed the powder with hot drinks. We are based at Owode. Jamiu paid me N1000 for each skull I bought for him.”
