According to Majekodunmi, he strangulated her and removed her head immediately with support from other accomplices.
He said:
“Last year December, Mustekeem gave me her number that I should be dating her. The first time Sofiat came to my house, I informed Mustekeem that she was around and that she had agreed to my proposal for a relationship.
“Also the second time Sofiat came I told Mustekeem, but he told that Sofiat is not a good girl and advised that we should use her (for money rituals). Mustekeem said he saw a guideline for Oshole (Money rituals) on Facebook and he had a screenshot of it.
“Since then, he has been disturbing me that we should use Sofiat for the rituals, but I didn’t agree with him. In fact, on many occasions, I lied to Sofiat that I am not at home just to dissuade her from coming.
“During the process, Mustekeem had ensured that we all make contributions towards other ingredients needed for the rituals. So, eventually, Sofiat came to my house on Friday. I was inside my room with her while Mustekeem was outside. Later Mustekeem told me that we should go ahead and use her, after all, other ingredients for the rituals are ready.”
“I have regrets. If I knew it would end up like this, I would not have gotten myself involved the act. My advice to those who don’t want to wait for their time is that, they should please wait for their time."
