The Governor of Ogun State, Dapo Abiodun, has read the Riot Act to those engaged in ritual killings in the state, saying they will be made to face the law if caught.
Governor Abiodun said this just weeks after four teenagers were arrested for beheading a young girl for money ritual purposes in the state.
The suspects were said to have learnt the art through Facebook.
In a statement on wednesday, Governor Abiodun said propriety must be brought back into the psyche of children, adding that all hands must be on deck to arrest the moral decadence, particularly among the youths who are deceived that there is a shortcut to success.
The Governor said ritualists will be made to serve as examples for anyone harbouring such sinister routes to wealth acquisition.
