Alfa Caught in Ibadan while trying to Kill Woman for Rituals

Another ritual target would have been killed in Ibadan at the weekend by an Islamic cleric (Alfa).

Chiwendu Nkwocha was already pinned to the ground by the suspect, Isa Salaudeen, in his room at Ori Eru in Ibadan, with the knife slicing through her neck when, with the last strength in her, she screamed for help at the top of her voice.

Residents in the neighbourhood rushed to the scene with one of them kicking the door open. When Salaudeen looked up, he saw a crowd.

He dropped the knife and made to flee. He did not go far before he was caught and given the beating of his life. Some in the crowd even wanted him lynched on the spot. NigeriaBulletin
