A 35-year-old man, Clement Oyetunde has been arrested by operatives of the Osun State Police Command. The man , who claimed to be a pastor, was found with a human skull and charms at Adeowo area of Modakeke. The state police spokesman, Folashade Odoro, who represented the Commissioner of Police, Abubakar Marafa, disclosed this at a news conference in Osogbo yesterday saying Clement was arrested on a tip-off from residents of the area. Confessing to the crime, Oyetunde said, “I am a pastor of the Cherubim & Seraphim Church in Oke-Itura parish, Adeowo area of Modakeke in Osun State. It was Wasiu that brought the skull to me. We buried it at my backyard. Wasiu left immediately and I don’t know his whereabouts now. A few days later, I was sleeping in the house when I heard strange voices singing and drumming in a Christian way as if they were worshiping. The tune suddenly changed into a traditional song and some spirits started telling me that I should return the skull of Iya-Osun. They told me that the skull we buried in my house was Mama Osun’s skull and that the woman was from Ondo, Ondo State. They insisted that I must return it and the noise was too much for me to bear as my own skull was swelling. That is why I ran out from the house and called for help so that the spirits do not kill me inside the house. It was then that the people in my area gathered and eventually called in the police”.
