Aya said the suspect, Jeremiah Samson, was arrested on Wednesday in Lokoja and he is currently being investigated.

He said that Samson had earlier kidnapped the victim, identified as Damilola, a student of the Federal University, Lokoja, and demanded and collected N400,000 from her parents.

“Investigation revealed that after collecting the money, he went ahead to strangle the victim, dismembered the body and buried her in a shallow grave.

“He confessed further that it was one herbalist simply identified as Arab Money, who he claimed to have contacted on Facebook, who prescribed the ritual for him. The suspect hails from Kaduna South.

According to our informant, Samson said he decided to kill the victim after kidnapping her at Felele, around the school, when she was trying to escape from captivity.

He said the victim was his first target, but two bodies were exhumed at the scene, though the body of the first had decayed.

Police detectives exhumed the corpse of the victim with one other corpse buried by Samson in a bush along the NNPC filling station in Felele.

Aya said that the suspect would be charged in court as soon as the investigation is concluded.
