Human parts seller, herbalist, another arrested

Police in Edo have arrested a widow dealing in human parts, an herbalist, and another man involved in money ritual.

Confessing her involvement in the crime, the widow, Mrs. Josephine Adun, said a man, Charity Goodluck, approached her in February for a human skull.

Adun said she decided to consult a cemetery worker, who sold the human skull to her for N8,000. She, in turn, sold the skull to Goodluck for N40,000.

In his own confession, Goodluck named the herbalist, Olusola Oyowokemi, as the one who asked him to fetch a human skull for ritual purposes.

Explaining his involvement too, Oyowokemi said Goodluck approached him to prepare spiritual soap that could make him prosperous. He then advised Goodluck to get a skull for a ritual.

The 42-year-old herbalist said two months later, Goodluck came to him with the skull, which he used for the ritual.
