November 21st will ever remain
indelible in the heart of Oloko
villagers as members of the palace
guard to the community leader of
Ajara Topa community in
collaboration with a vigilante group
operating in the area arrested a
man who allegedly eats and sells
human parts to ritualists,
operating from a hole he dug
under the Gbaji bridge along the
Badagry-Seme border.
Joshua Akindele,56, hails from
Etokia Local Government in Ogun
State was earlier spotted by one
Anthony Amos who watched him
crawl into a hole under the Gbaji
bridge. Joshua confessed that he
had been into cannibalism and
ritual killing for the past 15 years,
after being introduced to the
business by a friend who
convinced him to stop driving
popular motor cycle known as
“Okada” which he claimed
profited him a little, but could not
sustain him. He further said that
he had been earlier sent to prison
for 5 years after molesting a 17-
year old girl.
Speaking with Crime Guard,
Akindele confessed to be the brain
behind the incessant killing within
the village using ply woods to hit
his human prey, and dragging them
into the holes before splitting their
parts for food and business… with
ritual buyers.
In his statement “I have been in
this business for the past 15 years
after my friend advised me to
stop riding okada and to join him
in ritual killing and cannibalism”
When asked how he carried out his
activities, he confessed “Whenever
I see somebody walking alone
without being conscious of who is
watching, I walk slowing up to
them and use a big ply wood to hit
them on their heads after which
they fall unconscious, I then drag
them into the hole and use a knife
to cut them into parts which I sell
to some churches and some ready
buyers who indulge in ritual killing
for easy money, and some times
when I feel hungry late in the
night, I eat some parts for food.
He confessed further that he sells
the parts as follows: Heads 7,500,
breast 1,500, p*****s 1000,
hands and legs for 3,500.
Amos who is a member of a
vigilante group in the area alerted
other members of the group and
palace guards of the Baale of
Ajara Topa community to the
movements of Joshua.
He told Crime Guard that at about
1 a.m on 21st of November, he
was on his normal routine watch
when he noticed him (Joshua)
crawling into the hole with a rice
bag, he quickly alerted other
members who confronted him
with a gun and ordered him to
drop and open what he was crying.
When he did, they discovered
rotten human parts; skulls, legs,
hands, breasts e.t.c.
Crime Guard visited the palace of
the Baale of Ajara Topa
community, Chief Samuel Amosu
Owolabi, who after confirming the
incident told Crime Guard that he
was sleeping in his palace when an
emergency call woke him with the
caller informing him that a man
had been arrested by members of
his palace guards in collaboration
with members of the vigilante
group with human parts.
Chief Samuel said he quickly called
Chief Patifo , Baale of Iyafin whom
his community shared the bridge
with to accompany him to the
scene. When he got there, he
noticed a mob had begun beating
the suspect and only stopped
after he begged them to let him
live so that proper investigations
will be carried out by the police.
Crime Guard confirmed the
suspect was in the custody of the
Badagry police division from a
police source who pleaded
anonymity.
