A chilling discovery has rocked the Agwan Sarki Orozo community in Nasarawa State, near the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), where a middle-aged man, allegedly a ‘Yahoo boy’ (Internet fraudster), was apprehended with the severed head of his girlfriend concealed in a polythene bag.
The gruesome incident, which has left residents in shock, unfolded after an intelligence tip-off led security operatives to an uncompleted building where the suspect was hiding. Upon interrogation, the man reportedly confessed to the heinous crime, further revealing that the rest of the victim’s body was still at his residence.
The Secretary of the Orozo Community, Comrade Abwami Nuhuson Daniel, took to his Facebook page to share the horrifying ordeal. Expressing disbelief, he wrote:
> “I got the shock of my life as we apprehend a ‘Yahoo’ ritual with human head (his girlfriend) inside a nylon in Agwan Sarki, Orozo, FCT.
“I thought I just used to watch things like this until I experienced one ‘live’ today in my community.
“And this guy said the remaining body of the girl is still in his house.
“God have mercy on this generation.”
The disturbing post has since sparked widespread outrage and discussions about the alarming rise in ritual killings associated with Internet fraudsters, popularly referred to as ‘Yahoo boys.’
The Orozo community remains in shock, grappling with the reality of such a macabre event occurring within their midst. Residents have called for swift justice and increased security measures to curb the growing trend of ritualistic crimes.
Efforts to get a statement from the Nasarawa State Police Command have so far been unsuccessful, as authorities remain tight-lipped about the incident. However, unconfirmed reports suggest that the suspect is in police custody, and investigations are ongoing.
This horrific act has reignited conversations about the connection between ritual killings and Internet fraudsters in Nigeria. In their quest for quick wealth, some individuals are believed to resort to ritual sacrifices, a practice that continues to haunt communities across the country.
While the police have previously launched crackdowns on such practices, many Nigerians argue that stronger measures, including community awareness and stricter penalties, are needed to address the root causes of these crimes.
The shocking news has drawn condemnation from across the nation, with many taking to social media to express their disgust and demand swift action from law enforcement.
“This is not just a crime; it is a reflection of how decayed our society has become,” one commenter noted.
Others have called on the government and traditional leaders to take proactive steps to combat the culture of ritual killings and Internet fraud.
As investigations continue, the nation waits with bated breath for justice to be served for the victim of this gruesome act, and for decisive actions to be taken against those perpetuating such heinous crimes.
