Police Recover 2-year-old Boy’s Severed Head In Ibadan

The Ogun State Police Command yesterday said it had recovered the head of a two year-old boy which was severed by a suspected ritualist at Ofada in Obafemi-Owode Local Government Area of the state.

The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Muyiwa Adejobi, in a statement said the severed head of the boy was recovered in Ibadan.

The boy, whose mother was raped by the suspected ritualist identified as Mamodu Bashir Ibrahim, was beheaded last Thursday when his mother, who had him strapped on her back, went to ease herself in a bush.

According to the PPRO, detectives attached to the Department of Criminal Investigation, Eleweran, Abeokuta later arrested the suspect who fled the scene immediately he perpetrated the act.

“The suspect took the investigation team to Mokola area of Ibadan, Oyo State where the head was recovered in a bag in the bush, Tuesday.

“The Commissioner of Police, Ogun State, Mr Ikemefuna Okoye, has, however, directed the detectives to intensify efforts to uncover the buyers and those who engage in such dirty deals in our society.”
