Ritualists get desperate, strip youth corps members, order others to wear pants
Hoodlums stealing pants for money rituals have turned desperate as they now strip victims while forcing others to wear pants that they (ritualists) eventually take away.
Two members of the National Youth Corps members serving in Ebonyi State fell victim on February 5 when they forced them to part with their pants.
According to the Ebonyi State police command, one of the victims was in her periods and the ritualists went away with the sanitary pads.
The spokesperson of the police command, Loveth Odah, said the incident happened at Oshiegbe community, near the boundary between Ohaukwu and Ezza North council area of the state.
Odah said: “On 5th of February, 2019, Female corps members reported to Divisional Headquarters in Ohaukwu council area to report that on their way coming from Ezillo in Ishielu council area to Abakaliki, a jeep stopped in front of them and asked them to pay N200 each to be conveyed to Abakaliki. They entered”.
“When they got to Oshiegbe community, at the boundary area between Ohaukwu and Ezza North council areas, the driver stopped and came down. He told them that he wanted to ease himself. He immediately went to the back door, opened the door and pointed a gun them; ordering them to come down and give them all their cloths including their pants.
“They collected their pants and her sanitary pad and drove off. Before driving off, they collected their phones and smashed them on the spot. We also learnt that when they meet women who are not wearing pants, they give them pants and force them to wear them for about five minutes before taking them away from their victims.”
