“I am a businessman, specializing in furniture making and sales and used to be resident at 48, Simpson Street, Adekunle, Yaba Lagos state of Nigeria. I am an easy-going family man with a wife and three daughters. In the course of my business, I interact with many people.

“Sometimes in early 2022, a group of people known to me invited me to join their association for they assured me quicker financial success and power. Initially, they loaned me some money to improve my business and after some months I repaid the loan.

“However, on a deeper investigation of the group I discovered that they are involved in diabolical rituals and that they function as blood cult.

“Due to my own strong Islamic religious leaning and my descent Yoruba cultural upbringing, I decided to sever my relationship with the group.
