How My long time Friend abducted me and Sold Me to Ritualists For N150,000 – Victim (A Must Read)

Firstclass newsline~Hearing the story of kidnapped people for ritual
purposes or for a ransom is disturbing and many just thank God it
isn't them and pray against it. The truth however is that with
dangerous elements that carry out these dastardly acts roaming freely
amongst us, everyone is at risk.
Here is the story of a young man, Timothy Lawani, 25, a trader at
Suleja roundabout area, who was kidnapped for ritual purpose but
survived the ordeal.
Lawani, in an interview a source, said it was God that saved him after
he was kidnapped, tied up and was to be sacrificed in Kano.
The incident happened at about 4am on January 14, 2015. Lawani went
outside his family house at
Old Barracks, Suleja to ease himself, when suddenly he heard someone
call his name. Walking towards a red Volkswagen Golf parked behind his
house, he was surprised to see an old friend, Friday, comfortably
seated in the car beckoning on him with two hefty men.
Narrating his story, Lawani said:
"In my confused state, I greeted them. One of them held me and the
other sprayed a powder on my face. That was the last thing I could
remember. I later saw myself in a very large hall with other young men
who were tied up. The kidnappers kept bringing other people to join
us. Sometimes, they even offered us food to eat which we all refused.
They then said, whether we ate or not, we would die after all.
"After two days, we were made to put on white apparels and join a
queue. I noticed that anyone who goes out never comes back; I was so
scared. When it was my turn, I went outside, saw a large pool of water
like swimming pool and a man standing by the side chanting
incantations. He later ordered the guards to take me inside that they
were not in need of someone like me."
Continuing, Lawani said:
"In my presence, the man called on Friday who came about 40 minutes
later. After telling him that I was not acceptable for their rituals,
Friday started flogging me mercilessly. He then ordered the men to
take me out, but not before the ritualist got angry, and ordered the
hefty men to bring Friday for sacrifice in my place. I heard him beg
them to give him just 30 minutes to enable him bring another person,
but the man said there was no time.
"With Friday's hands and legs tied, the man began chanting
incantations again. This time, I saw crocodiles coming out of the
water. Friday was then thrown inside, the reptiles feasted on him. I
was not myself because of the sight of blood and how such large
reptiles ate up a whole human being. The man later ordered the men to
throw me out, that I was useless to them. They sprayed a powder on my
face again and I became unconscious.''
On how he got back to his senses, Lawani recalled that he was
sheltered by a Hausa man who saw him wandering in Gomoja area of Kano
State.
After prayers were offered for him for about three days, he regained
consciousness but could not speak. It was then he wrote down his
father's phone number which he easily remembered and with which they
used to reach his family, that had been searching frantically for him.
Firstclass newsline later learnt from his elder brother, Theophilus
Lawani, that his friend sold him to the kidnappers for N150,000.
Theophilus further revealed that before the Hausa man called them from
Kano, Lawani's friend sent them several messages, telling them to
forgive him for selling his friend.
"Even before we got the text from Friday, we reported the case at A
division Police Station in Suleja, but the Policemen demanded the sum
of N70,000 in order to start investigation. Since we do not have such
amount, we resorted to prayers, and God answered us. We have decided
to take my brother for further prayers in Kaduna," Theophilus stated.
All efforts by the source to speak with the Divisional Police Officer
(DPO) of A Division was futile as it was referred to the Public
Relations Officer (PRO) at the headquarters in Minna. Meanwhile, a
Police officer who pleaded anonymity, said there have been several
incidents of kidnapping within and outside the state, but the police
have tried to curtail the rate by investigating and arresting
suspects.
