The ritual killers’ hideout was discovered at Yemoja compound, Iwo on Monday, 23rd November 2020.
It took the timely intervention of Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba Abdulrasheed Adewale Akanbi, Telu 1, and other respectable Iwo people to prevent total breakdown of law and order in the area over the incident.
Ayinla said the true sons and daughters of Iwo, home and abroad, considered the incident as unfortunate and expected the police to prosecute the suspects without delay to serve as deterrence to others.
Ayinla lamented that the suspects have not been arraigned in court to face trial since the incident happened.
