A business adminstration student of Kwara State University, Mr Rilwan Adeleye escaped death after four days in suspected ritual killers' captivity.
According to Mr Adeleye on the 29th of March this year, he stopped a taxi at a junction in Ilorin, Kwara State in Nigeria and informed the taxi driver he was heading towards Taiwo Road also in Ilorin. He claimed he was heading towards Taiwo Road in other to withdraw some money his father sent to him. The taxi he took was already occupied by two other passengers.
He said "On our way, the driver took a wrong route, so I challenged him and asked him why he wanted to pass through that way. the driver said he wanted to avoid the traffic hold-up. That was all I could remember."
Adeleye said "he later became unconscious, when I started recovering, I could faintly remember that they took me to an uncompleted building, then I found myself in a room. I was the only person inside. He added that someone came in and drew blood from his body with a syringe."
According to him, some of his captors came later and beat him mercilessly to the extent that he sustained a fracture in his arm. Mr Adeleye who is 21 years old said it was apparent by the anger of the ritual killers that his blood was not accepted for ritual purpose. After much beating, he said captors took him to a roadside and dumped him there but his friends saw him and took him home.
He stated the ordeal lasted for four days, from March 29 to April 1.
