Another serial killer has been arrested in Benue state, where he confessed that he has killed over 16 motorcycle operators in the state.
Iorwuese Kpila (suspect), who is a kidnap kingpin in Benue state, confessed to killing 16 persons who are mostly commercial motorcycle operators.
According to him, a spirit known as ‘Queen’ectts told him to kill 18 persons to acquire supernatural powers ’to appear and disappear’.
The 30-year-old suspect made the shocking confession while he was paraded on Friday, September 27, alongside six other members of his gang by the Benue state police commissioner, Mukaddas Garba.
Kpila further confessed that he planted cassava on the mass graves as a decoy.
Confessing further, the suspects said they lured their victims who are mostly commercial motorcycle operators and killed them with a rope and afterwards sell the victims’ motorcycles.
“We would tell okada riders to drop us at a certain location and immediately we reached there, me and my gang members would grab the victim and strangulate him with a rope. We would dig a grave, bury him and plant cassava on top of the grave, thereafter sell the motorcycle,’’ Kpila confessed.
Kpila also claimed that a spirit known as ‘Queen’ told him to kill 20 persons to acquire supernatural powers ’to appear and disappear.’ Garba urged members of the public to always feel free provide his command genuine information about criminals and their activities in the state.
“So from there I and my people kidnap people and when we kidnap them we kill them and give their blood to our ‘Queen’ for power to get anything we want both power and money.
“I have been in the business for three months because the ‘Queen’ mandated that we should complete the blood sacrifice with 20 people for us to acquire whatever we needed but so far we have killed 16 persons.”
“But I have now realised that all powers belong to God. Before now I confessed my sins to the policeman that arrested me. He also took me to a pastor in Katsina even before taking him to the graves where I confessed my sins,” he added.
