Men of the Nigerian Police Force on Thursday, apprehended three men in possession of human skulls in Ogun .
The Ogun state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Mr Abimbola Oyeyemi, in a statement in Abeokuta on Friday said the two suspects, Saibu Popoola and Aliu Ajiroba, were arrested during police patrol on Thursday in Aiyetoro.
Oyeyemi said “Our men conducted a search on them and two skulls were seen in their bag.
“They were arrested and taken to Aiyetoro Police Station where they told the police that the skulls were given to them by one Jimoh Ijiola who lives in Erinpa area of Aiyetoro.
“Our men also arrested Ijiola at the said residence on Thursday but he denied that he gave them the skulls.
