An Islamic cleric, Salawudeen Lukman, has said it was not his business to enquire how those who come to him for ritual get the human parts they bring.
Rather, the Cleric said all he does was to use the human parts to brought to prepare money ritual soaps for his clients.
Lukman, 36, disclosed this when he was paraded by the Osun State Commissioner of Police, Olawale Olokode, at the Command Headquarters in Osogbo.
Lukman said one Alfa Semiu brought parts of human head and palms to him to prepare money making soap for him.
According to him, he was given the formula of ritual money making by a Fulani cleric.
He said he gave it a trial when his customer brought the necessary materials.
He said: “I am an Islamic cleric.
“Alfa Semiu brought head and palm to me for ritual soap charm for him.
“I prepared a black soap for him, but could not deliver it when I was arrested by the police.
“I did not know where he got the body parts from, but he told me someone gave it to him at Ile-Ife.
“I have never killed anyone before nor prepared such soap before now.”
Olokode said the police discovered a dead body identified as Bolaji Akerele dumped somewhere in Ile-Ife.
Upon investigation, it was discovered that her head and palms have been severed from the body.
