By Yusuff Abdul Aziiz
The Osun State command of the Nigerian Police Force on Monday paraded a-42-year-old herbalist, Odediran Semiu who specialized in defrauding unsuspecting clients who came for spiritual help and healing.
Semiu was arrested in Apomu, Isokan Local Government Area when men of the state command bursted his house and discovered some fetish materials.
Some items found in his house includes: a shrine, idols decorated charms, fake currencies among others.
Responding to questions from journalists, Semiu disclosed that the shrine and other materials found in his house are mere camouflage meant to deceive clients who came to him for consultations.
He explained that his sojourn into crime came as a resultant effect of being duped by an herbalist in Lagos.
He added that tragic experience led him to establish his own spiritual consultation home.
Osun State Commissioner of Police, Olafimihan Adeoye while parading the suspect said investigation on the matter is still ongoing pending the prosecution of the suspect at the court of law.
He urged the citizens of the state to abstain from all acts capable of damaging the image of the state.
