An Islamic cleric, Kazeem Alimson, popularly known as Alfa, has been arrested for murdering 3 year old Chiagozie Okereke with a stone for ritual purposes.
The harrowing event happened at White Sand area of Isheri-Oshun Lagos. A 15-year-old teenager Simon Kanu, was arrested along with the cleric. He confessed that he was paid N500 by the Alfa, to bring the child.

The kid just returned back home safely from surgery three weeks ago. Narrating how her bundle of joy was stolen, Mrs. Chinasa Okereke, the mother of the kid said:
“At about 7pm yesterday (Tuesday), I brought my children out to bathe. When I finished bathing the younger one, I went inside to get a wrapper to strap him, to enable me bathe the other child.
“But on getting outside, I didn’t see my baby again. The sister said he went into my neighbour’s house but I didn’t see him there and when I asked, they said he went out with Simon.
“I called my son’s name but there was no response. Later, we saw Simon that night, I asked him about the whereabouts of my son, he said he did not see him.
“It was yesterday that I learnt that Simon took my son to where he was strangled with his shirt and stoned to death. He was my third child. I feel so hurt. My heart is broken. I need justice.”
