Man who abuses minors for money ritual nabbed

Mr Emmanuel Ojukwu, Enugu State Police Commissioner

The Enugu State Police Command has arrested a man who allegedly abused a minor sexually for money ritual in the state.

The command’s spokesman, Mr Ebere Amaraizu, said this in a statement issued in Enugu on Sunday.

Amaraizu said the suspect was arrested on Dec. 11 through intelligence information.

He said that the suspect, a resident of Opanda in Uzo-Uwani Local Government Area of the state, often had anal sex with his victims.

The police spokesman said the suspect had believed that wealth could be gotten through money ritual by sexually abusing male and female minors.

“He has sexually abused no fewer than 11 minors through their anus.

“The suspect revealed that he has a white cloth with which he used to flash on the face of his victims usually within the age range of 3, 4, 7, 8, 9 and 11.

“He further revealed that as soon as the white cloth is flashed on their faces, they will lose their consciousness and follow him to where he will abuse him or her through the anus.

“ This is for the purpose of reaping the victim’s destiny which in turn helps to boost the process of his financial acquisition/wealth,’’ he said.

When asked as to whether he had started getting the money Amaraizu said that the suspect replied that he was still in the process as it needed to be completed with at least 15 minors.

The police spokesman said that full scale investigation had begun into the incident.

“The suspect is now regretting his alleged nefarious activities of sexually abusing minors through their anus,’’ he said.
