Azeez, aged 32, confessed to being a member of a ritualist gang that specialized in murdering women and selling their body parts for money rituals
The Ogun State Police Command had earlier arrested and paraded other members of the gang, namely Moses Abidemi Awuraji, Oluwo Samuel Monday, Peter Oluwalolese, Jamiu Yusuf, Akinwunmi Ifatosin, Sheriff Agbai, and Osojieahen Alioneitouria.
They were all arrested for their alleged involvement in the killing of a 35-year-old woman named Sulaimon Adijat for money rituals
Azeez, who had been evading arrest, was later apprehended by the police.
He confessed to joining the gang in September of the previous year and admitted to being involved in the killings of seven women
He revealed this while suspected criminals were being paraded by the state Commissioner of Police, Abiodun Alamutu.
Alamutu mentioned that the suspect had colluded with Moses Abidemi Awuraji, a herbalist, in executing the killings for money rituals.
“The suspects strangled their victims to death and dismembered their body parts and sold them to Oluwo Monday Samuel and Alfa Ariwo (who is still at large) for ritual purposes
“The three suspects confessed to the killing of ten different ladies at the Igbo Olomi residence of Moses Abidemi,” Alamutu said.
Narrating how he lured and killed the victims, Azeez said, “I got the ladies from MyChat, which is a hookup app. I just told them that I wanted to hook up with them whenever Moses Abidemi Awuraji contacted me that they needed human body parts.
“They will call me and say that they need body parts, I will go on the app and chat with the ladies for a hookup. I didn’t know the ladies before, we didn’t have any conversation before, I only talked to them on the app. I ask if they are available and we negotiate on the amount they want to collect. When we reach an agreement, I will send my address to them and they will come over to me at Atan-Ota.
“I will pick them up and call Moses Abidemi Awuraji that they are around, I will then take them to Moses Abidemi Awuraji’s house in Igbo Olomi, Atan-Ota, and inside his sitting room, we will kill them.
“Abidemi’s wife (Awuraji Mariam) will pin their legs down while I strangle them.
“I joined the gang in September of 2023 and we have killed seven ladies. These are the ladies that I brought to the house that we killed.
“I don’t know what they use the corpses of the ladies for, my job is just to source for the ladies and bring them in. They don’t usually tell me the amount they will give, at times, they will pay me N30,000, other times, they give me N40,000
“I can’t say no to them whenever they ask me to bring the ladies. I don’t know who they sell the body parts to and I don’t ask them about it, my own is just to source the ladies and collect my money.”
Alamutu stated that the Command is diligently working to identify other potential victims
He encouraged the public to come forward with any information regarding missing relatives, accompanied by photographs, to aid in the investigation
