Panic In Ikorodu Over Oba’s Death, As Rumor Centers Someone Must Be Used For Sacrifice

Following the reported demise of Oba Johnson Fatola of Ikorodu whose death was announced around 6pm on Monday, June 29, 2015,the residents and visitors to Igbogbo, Ikorodu fled for saftey as such deaths are accompanied by late night curfew…

The curfew in line with traditional culture is usually observed for a week .It  bans males and females from being seen outside at a certain hour and failure to observe the curfew often attracts deadly consequences ..
