The police in Lagos have arrested a man caught with a head of a woman at Imota, near Ikorodu, which he claimed he wanted to use for protection.
Sources at the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID), Panti, told News Agency of Nigeria that the suspect, simply identified as Emmanuel, was arrested at the home of a native doctor who is now at large.
It was gathered that neighbours had reported to the police in Imota that a foul smell was emanating from the compound of the native doctor, identified as Jamiu.
The source explained that the policemen attached to the division invaded the place, ”combed the surrounding and discovered a human head”.
”Jamiu, the native doctor, however, took to his heels when challenged but Emmanuel was arrested and he confessed that Jamiu helped him to get the human head for protection against Badoo cult group.
”The police are on the trail of the native doctor while Emmanuel would be charged to court soon,” the police source added.
