Nurudeen Adeniyi, 34, suspect.
Nurudeen Adeniyi is my name, I am 34 years old. I am selling cement and rice and I am an Alfa.
I told him (Banjo) that I need human heart and he said he has a man that can get it for him.
I just take the delivery of this one (hearts) and I have collected two pieces two years ago.
I am not the person that used the one I collected two years ago, the person that used that one is dead now.
I want to use the parts for eyonu, ebe a won agba.
I regret my actions and I want Nigerians to forgive me.

Commissioner of Police Ahmed Iliyasu has confirmed the incident;
“You can see a recession of human being back to cannibalism and we would not allow that, that is why when out operatives got this information, we quickly swung into action and rounded them up.
We have interviewed them. That is bestial and we cannot allow that. We have carried out our constitutional duties by arresting them,” he said.
Definitely, the right procedure will be taken and they would be charged to court for prosecution.
Nobody will hide under any guise to perpetrate any criminal act in the state and go free, we will definitely get at him. We have our various tactical deployment, we have our covert operations and we are picking them up,” he said.
