A 20-year-old man named Ridwan has been detained by the Ogun State Community, Social Orientation and Safety Corps, also known as So-Safe Corps, for allegedly ordering his father for ritualistic purposes in Ogun.

According to a news release from the Corps’ Office of the State Commander, on August 31 at around 12:00 p.m., officers of the Corps were on normal patrol when they noticed an odd noise coming from a building in Oshoku Village, Ijebu North LGA.

When the officers went inside to investigate, they were horrified to discover a man’s body lying still in a pool of his own blood, and the alleged killer had already fled the scene.

He admitted to having killed his father, Ishau, with a rope tied around his neck and a knife used to cut off the necessary body parts for ritual use. The suspected killer was apprehended where he was hiding in a thicket.
