Man arrested for selling wife and child to ritualists

Published




A man accused of selling his wife and child for N270,000 has been arrested by the police.

A video footage of the arrest process was captured and posted online by an eyewitness, Adaslimshow on Instagram. His disturbed mother-in-law and brother-in-law were present at the scene of the arrest.

The unnamed accused man was loaded onto a white pickup van and tied, hands behind back, to the vehicle.

His mother-in-law could be heard reminding nobody in particular that the accused man has not said where to find the people he sold.

Adaslimshow who posted the video wrote as caption for it: “Behold this boy just sold his wife and daughter for N270k to “ritualists” no doubt “Body organs buyers”. Beside him is the old mother of the wife. She is asking for her daughter & grand-daughter.”

One of those who commented on the video posted on Thursday expressed doubts about the sanity of the accused. In answer, the eyewitness indicated that if he was sane enough to escape with daredevil stunt after he was accused, then he is sane enough to be arrested.

“He is not well but he was well enough to jump the many fences while running before he ended up in a church on my street and God arrested him,” she answered.

Many people commented on how sad the act is.

A commentator jocasiofficialAmen! wrote on how meager the amount he collected is to further condemn the act: “This is soooo sad damn it! What the hell is money over your own family…your wife, your child, your own blood…? 270k will finish in a bar in a matter of two to three days!”
