The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC has arrested two herbalists and another who allegedly colluded to defraud an aspiring House of Representatives member in Ekiti of N24 million.

In a statement issued by Wilson Uwujaren, EFCC spokesman on Tuesday, the anti-graft agency noted Abiodun Ibrahim and Wale Adifala,( two self-acclaimed spiritualists), alongside Ifawole Ajibola (aka Baba Kalifa, an accomplice) were arrested by operatives of the Lagos command of the commission on July 7 in Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti capital.

Reports noted Ajibola is currently on the run.

They claimed the money was to be used to secure spiritual help for the victim’s political ambition.

However, according to the EFCC, under interrogation by operatives, Adifala admitted to collecting the sums of money from their victim, including N2.9 million, which he claimed was used to buy black, brown, and white cows, rams, lavender perfume, and rings among other items to carry out sacrifices at different times.

“I also linked up on the matter with Ifawole Ajibola, and we continued with the sacrifices together, until we were arrested by EFCC,” he said.

The commission said Ibrahim, who had initial contact with the victim, admitted to collecting money at different times.

Their arrest followed a petition alleging that after collecting the said sum, the whole effort came to a dead end, the EFCC said.

The agency added that the culprits were arrested along with some of their instruments of trade, and would soon be arraigned in court.
