"Hope he uses the money well.....May God be with him."

He was frustrated and jobless

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that in a video interview, the man said that he took that drastic action because he was jobless and frustrated for a long time.

Alaba added that the only opportunity he has been seeing was to do voodoo or blood money, things he can never do.

The graduate who said that his entertaining skill once won him an award during his National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) days added that he could not raise a capital to start his own outfit.
