Aminu Baba, a prominent businessman who deals in cars and other vehicles at Aminchi Motors Gusau in Zamfara State, has revealed that he ate and sold human parts to unknown individuals.
Baba, who was arrested last week in connection with the murder and dismemberment of a 9-year-old boy in Gusau, told journalists that he had three wives and 19 children.
Mr Ayuba N Elkanah, the state police commissioner, paraded the suspect on Thursday, saying he hired two teenagers to scout for young boys to kill for him, and they did so twice for N1 million.
“I paid them N500,000 for each of the two young boys’ deaths.”
“We extracted some parts, and I used to eat these human organs and sell some to those in need,” he explained.
Aminu, on the other hand, refused to reveal where he got the money to pay the killers and his collaborators in the state.
According to the police commissioner, the other suspect, Abdulshakur Mohammad, confessed that it was the third time he had been hired by Baba to source for human parts.
According to the suspect, he received N500,000 following the first and second operations before being apprehended.
He admitted conspiring with Baba and Ahmad Tukur to dupe the victim, who was led to an unfinished building.
“After killing him, they extracted his intestine, esophagus, private part, and two eyes, which they gave to Baba, who in turn gave them to him.”
Two weeks ago, the remains of a nine-year-old boy named Ahmad Yakubu Aliyu were discovered in an unfinished building in Gusau’s Barakallahu neighborhood.
According to the report, Ahmad went missing shortly after returning from Islamiyya School in the city’s Gadar Baga neighborhood.
When the building’s owner returned to continue his construction work, he noticed the little boy’s decomposing body.
The site was immediately closed, and the incident was reported to the police, who later confirmed that Ahmad had been killed and dumped.
