''I USE JUICE TO FEED MY POULTRY BIRDS ''- SUSPECTED KIDNAPPER IN THE IBADAN DEN SAGA SAYS

Scene of the site. Inset: Tijani.

This is a serious issue and yet hilarious. Who uses juice to feed poultry birds hahahahahhahahha.

A man, identified as Sulaiman Tijani, was arrested on Wednesday at Soka forest where scores of decomposing bodies and body parts were discovered on Saturday.

Another man who appeared to be mentally ill was almost lynched by angry youths who descended on him at a point close to the site.

The police were, however, able to rescue him and whisk him away. The youths said he was pretending to be insane and could be one of the kidnappers who operated in the forest.
A man, identified as Sulaiman Tijani, was arrested on Wednesday at Soka forest where scores of decomposing bodies and body parts were discovered on Saturday.


Tijani was coming from the forest, holding a polythene bag which he said contained sachets of juice. He said he usually picked up the juice from a refuse dump site beside a company located at the edge of the forest.

However, his explanation was faulted when he added that he was a poultry farmer in Ogun State.

He said, “I have a poultry farm. I use the juice to feed the birds in the farm which is located at Ijebu Ode.”

When it appeared that he had nothing more to say, he was whisked away by the police.

 It was learnt that the discovery of the forest had heightened vigilance activities in Ibadan with youths suspecting every lunatic in the city.

The youths in Ibadan have gone on a rampage killing lunaticas and mad men in the city . They  said the activities of kidnappers was aided by the fact that lunatics and destitute were once kept in the forest by the state government and after the project was rested, some people with bad intent capitalised on the existence of the forest and its location to carry out their evil acts.

A man, who claimed to be a youth leader, Bosun, said, “It is now clear that those men pretended to be mad, but the truth is that they were allies of the kidnappers.”

After the killing of a mad man at the Soka junction on Sunday by irate youths, another one was burnt to death on Wednesday in the Oke Ado area of Ibadan, while yet another was rescued by the police.  A man suspected to be part of the mob was also arrested by the police.

At the Mokola area of the city, another mad man was rescued by the police from angry youths as he was about to be lynched. He was accused of feigning madness while his dreadlocks and inner wears were clean.


“He came to this area a week ago, but he is too well fed and neat to be considered a mad man. His dreadlocks were neat and well oiled, he had money on him and an ATM card,” said one of the youths.
