He noted that the eagle eyed policemen attached to Operation Harmony, while on patrol on Oke Oyi-Jebba Road on Sunday arrested the suspects identified as Wasiu Omonose aged 35 years, of Abioye compound, Share and one Akanbi Ibrahim aged 32 years of Sayo Street Share who confessed to be taking the fresh human head and hands to an Alfa in Ilorin for ritual purposes.

Meanwhile, the Commissioner of Police, Tuesday Assayomo has warned criminal elements to relocate from the state, as the Command would not fold its arms and allow criminals of whatever nomenclature truncate the peace and harmony presently existing in the State.
