A 25-year-old man, Ahmadu Saminu, who hails from Bajoga in the Funakaye Local Government Area of Gombe State has been arrested by officers of the Gombe State Police Command.

Saminu, popularly known as Malam Mai Batalia, operates as a fortune teller in the area and has a wide range of cliental base that cuts across all the LGAs, state, and other neighbouring states.

It was gathered that Saminu interpreted dreams and saw visions for his patrons.

However events went awry when his victim who was alleged to have visited him following a nightmare she experienced the night before was hypnotised and he (Saminu) took advantage of her by having carnal knowledge of her.

Sources alleged that, “following her visit to Saminu for an interpretation to her dream, she was hypnotised and defiled.”

Confirming the arrest and allegation to our correspondent, the Gombe State Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Buhari Abdullahi, said that indeed Saminu was arrested for allegedly pregnating someone’s wife.

Abdullahi said, “The victim is 20 years. Her husband, Bashiru Bello, reported the case. She dreamt about her mother being a witch and needed an interpretation into what she said she saw only for her to visit Saminu to know what she needed to do. But she was lured into his room.”

On the alleged pregnancy of the victim, Abdullahi said, “That is what we can’t say for now until the medical examination result is obtained.

“However, the victim claimed she was pregnant for four months but bled and, as a result, lost the pregnancy. We have taken the victim to the hospital to ascertain the allegation. But the case is in court.”

Meanwhile, some residents of Funakaye have frowned at the alleged high-powered interest in the release of Saminu.

A resident who simply identified himself as Hassan said Saminu is connected to some powerful persons who are currently working to get him out.

“Mai Batalia has been doing this for long. It is not the first time the police are under pressure to let him out. He consults for some big men, and they want him out of police custody,” he said.

Another resident, who also simply identified himself as Muhammad, said that releasing Saminu without punitive measures may spell doom, as “Some youths are planning to burn his cows and any attempt to release him will not be tolerated. Enough of his nefarious activities,” he added.

My Fortune teller, did you see this one coming?

No mind am, but he saw himself knacking the woman

Women are preys in the hands of fake clerics or spiritualists.

whats his crime

Both the man n the woman should be arrested not just by arresting the man alone because it takes two to tango.

COMRADES, police shouldn't have arrested him in first place because Muslim women like patronising these mallams well well

Fortune Tellers, prophets, marabouts and juju priests do not see revelation through visions on themselves and members of their own family, go and ask very well.
