UPDATE: Islamic Cleric attempts using lover for money rituals.

Residents of Big Daddy Street in the Atinplome, Bagadry area of Lagos State on Tuesday stormed an uncompleted building in the area, which they suspected to be a ritual killer’s den, after a female victim raised an alarm.

According to PUNCH Metro, at about 12am, while a carnival went on in the area, a woman in her late 20s, whose name had yet to be known, ran into the party with her throat partly cut, and blood streaming out of her body. The girl, who later became unconscious and was rushed to a private hospital in the area, told the partying crowd that an alfa, identified as Mallam Sheu, had tricked her into the uncompleted structure before slitting her throat with a knife.

The matter was said to have been reported at the Morogbo Police Division, and some policemen came to the scene, but the alfa was said to have fled the uncompleted apartment. It was learnt that in the morning, more residents thronged the area and they were said to have found bloodstains, old clothes, charms and ladies’ clothes inside the structure.

PHOTOS: Alleged victimization of a Nigerian student in Republic of Benin.

A Linda Ikeji Blog reader shares the story of his experience in the Republic of Benin:

My name is Sikiru Yusuf Adewunmi Joseph Statples. I am a 200l (two hundred) level student in Les Cour Sonour University in Cotonou Benin republic, where I am studying International relations and political science. I went into that country in a good faith of which I entered into a tenancy agreement on the 20th of April 2015 and its going to end on 20th February 2016 with my landlord whose name is Mme HOUNkpehedji.

On the 12th of November before the expiration of the agreement the landlord illegally ejected me without no prior notice or court order and threw my belongings out of the property in that scenario my all my properties was  damaged because of an utility bill which i told him to get me a printed slip of which he went to the meter and wrote an inflated bill on a sheet of paper which i told him i wouldn't pay unless he brings a printed slip from their power holding company. an argument ensued before the ejection.

Subsequent to the unlawful ejection i was aggrieved so I went to my school where i wrote an appeal to the director generale of my school Mr  Fabrice Sonour.  After the appeal i wrote i went to a local police station that has jurisdiction of that area and the police invited the landlord for an interview. He attended the police station but the policemen where been biased about the whole issue of which i was threatened by the landlord that hes going to make life unbearable for me in that country... i had no financial capability to consult a legal practitioner to help address that situation. On the 14th of November 2015 i went to the Nigerian embassy in Benin republic for assistance due to my distress situation i was kept outside the embassy for two hours despite the fact i showed them my permanent voters card as proof of me been a Nigerian citizen. After the long wait a sheet of paper was brought by the security men of which i wrote an appeal to the ambassador then i was let in. I had to come again the next day to the embassy where i met Nigerian Consul to Benin Mr Badmus of which he accompanied me to the police station at Epe Carrefour

To my surprise the consul when he wanted to introduce me at the police station in yoruba dialect said and i quote 'awon ti Buhari ni eleyi' which means i was an emissary of buhari this portrayed me as a whistle blower of the federal republic of Nigeria. That careless comment by the consul made them place me on surveillance in that country.
