50-year-old herbalist kills friend to make ritual soap for ‘Yahoo Boys’
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LinkedinShare on Whatsapp

A 50-year-old herbalist, Kehinde Ganiyu, has been arrested for killing his Ghanaian friend, Emmanuel Collins, by cutting his throat to make ritual soap for internet fraudsters known as ‘Yahoo boys’.

The incident occurred last Thursday at Oba-Oke in the Olorunda local government area of Osun State.

The Osun State Police Command paraded the suspect, and police public relations officer, Yemisi Opalola disclosed that Ganiyu was found with four blood-stained knives, a chisel, two gourds, a wooden traditional pot containing black soap, two sponges with black soap, a traditional tray (Opon Ifa), and local charms.

Speaking to newsmen on Friday, July 26, Ganiyu confessed to killing his close friend and using his throat to make ritual soap.

He explained: “I visited my friend, Emmanuel Collin because he was sick. While he was in bed, I took a knife and cut his throat. I used the part to prepare ritual money soap for Yahoo boys.”

“I am an herbalist and a farmer. I used to do that kind of ritual for Yahoo boys but they are the ones that do bring human parts. This time around, I look out for the part myself. I regretted my action because I also attended his burial but suspicion and investigation by police led to my arrest. I don’t believe that I can kill my age-long friend like that.”
