The police in Lagos have arrested a man found with a decomposing woman human head at Imota, near Ikorodu.

Sources at the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID), Panti, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos that the suspect, simply identified as Emmanuel, was arrested at the home of a native doctor.

Neighbours had reported to the police in Imota that a foul smell was emanating from the compound of the native doctor, identified as Jamiu.

“Policemen attached to the division invaded the place, combed the surrounding and discovered a human head. Jamiu, the native doctor, however, took to his heels when challenged but Emmanuel was arrested and he confessed that Jamiu helped him to get the human head for protection against Badoo cult group,” a police source said.

The Lagos police spokesman, ASP Olarinde Famous-Cole, said investigation was continuing. (NAN)
