18 YEAR OLD BOY KILLS GIRL FOR MONEY RITUALS

An 18 year old boy, Ikechukwu Friday has been arrested for the slaying
of a 12 year old girl for money rituals.
The culprit who is at the State Criminal Investigation Division, Yaba,
said he was instructed to kill the girl by a pastor he sought alms
from.
He said the Pastor promised him N100,000 should he strangle a girl and
bring her feces to him.
He narrated, "I attend a popular church around Ketu Street, Aguda, but
I live with my parents in Badagry. I just finished secondary school
and I have been very broke. So, I approached the pastor for money, but
he told me that I should strangulate a little girl.
"He explained that while strangulating the girl, she would pass out
faeces in the throes of death. The pastor said I should obtain the
faeces and bring it to him. He said if I could do this, he would give
me N100,000.
"On December 30, 2013, I approached a young girl, Bose Ogoja. Her
mother sells food in Badagry and I usually patronise them; so she
trusted me. I told the girl that I wanted to show her something and
she should follow me. I took her to an abandoned NITEL building and
locked the door.
"I squeezed her neck and truly, she passed out faeces. I was, however,
not able to get the faeces because I was caught before I could
escape."
Lagos State Police Spokesperson, Ngozi Braide said, "He was arrested
in an uncompleted building. The security guard manning the building
told the police that he saw the Friday entering the building with a
12-year-old girl.
"He said a few minutes later, he heard the girl screaming and later
saw the boy leaving. The security guard raised the alarm and the
neighbours were alerted and they arrested the suspect. On entering the
building, they discovered that the girl was dead.
"The picture of the girl's corpse shows that the girl is naked and her
faeces is on the floor."
