The Oyo State Police Command has arrested two suspects accused of exhuming corpses and selling body parts to ritualists, exposing a chilling trade in human remains.

The Command’s Public Relations Officer, Adewale Osifeso, disclosed the arrest in a statement on Friday in Ibadan, revealing that the operation was carried out following a crucial tip-off received by detectives at the Iyaganku Divisional Police Headquarters.

“During the search, a female human torso and other dismembered human remains, including severed limbs and dried bones, which were stored in bags and a paint bucket, were recovered,” Osifeso said.

One of the suspects, in his confession, admitted to digging up a corpse from a cemetery in Awa-Ijebu, Ijebu North Local Government Area of Ogun State, and selling the remains to ritualists.

Following his confession, detectives tracked down a second suspect, a septuagenarian, who was allegedly involved in purchasing human body parts.

“He also admitted to his involvement in the illicit trade in human body parts,” Osifeso added.

The case has been transferred to the Homicide Section of the State Criminal Investigation Department for further investigation, as police intensify efforts to apprehend other suspects linked to the disturbing operation.

Meanwhile, the Oyo State Commissioner of Police, Johnson Ademola, has issued a stern warning to cemetery managers, urging them to heighten security amid rising cases of corpse exhumation.

Ademola also cautioned transporters to be more vigilant and carefully inspect passengers’ luggage to prevent unknowingly aiding such criminal activities.

They want to promulgate the death penalty as the ultimate punishment for criticising the president.
An aid to the president mooted that idea, only to walk it back after it was greeted with thunderous uproar across the country..

Meanwhile, to ahow you that this "killing" ideas is a policy initiative of the ruling janja-weed party, for months now, APCs Internet hirelings have been busy trying hard to deter criticisms of the president with similar threats across the blogosphere..

To think that these are the same "progressives" who "survived" Abacha by the whiskers while "fighting for democracy" with NADECO.. Now they are ready to kill anyone for just having a contrary opinion to theirs.

They think politics is kiriji wars. .., that Nigeria is the primitive Oyo empire..
