Two ritual killers from Nasarawa State who beheaded a 7 year old boy, identified as Samu Danjuma, after a promise of N250, 000 by their prospective buyer are cooling their heels in the cell of the FCT command of the State Security Service (SSS).

The men, John Yakubu a.k.a Tambaya and Ishaya Dakulung were said to have hatched a plan to make quick money when a third accomplice, one Bamayi, assured them that they would make money if they could get a fresh human head.

The two suspects, according to SSS, were arrested last Sunday at about 1:30 am along A.Y.A junction of Asokoro District of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja, following a tip off.

Assistant Director, Operations of the Service, Ibrahim Halidu, while parading the suspects narrated that “On July 22, 2012 at about 0130hrs at A.Y.A Asokoro, operatives of this Service arrested two suspected ritual killers with a fresh human head of a seven year old who was later identified as Samu Danjuma.

“They were arrested while they were looking for a buyer, following a tip-off.

“The Service has commenced investigation in order to prosecute the duo in a court of law”, Mr. Halidu stated.
