A suspected armed robber, Jamal Nasiru, has confessed that he drinks cow blood to give him protection during operations but he was disappointed when the powers failed him.
To get some supernatural powers during their robbery operations, some arrested armed robbery suspects have confessed that they drink cow blood mixed with other concoctions to fortify and make them invincible.
This was the confession of a 19-year old Chadian citizen and cross-border armed robbery suspect, Jamal Nasiru, who was nabbed by the Lagos State Special Anti-Robbery, (SARS), saying that before any operation, he and his gang normally drinks cow blood for spiritual powers.
Nasiru and his gang members, Abubakar Sala, Umaru Abubakar and Ahmed Mohammed, was arrested after his normal cow blood ritual failed him while the gang leader, Mohammed Abubakar, was killed during a gun battle with the police.
Nasiru, who could not believe that the cow blood ritual had deserted them, narrated the circumstances leading to their arrest;
I drink raw cow blood which enhances my morale and gives me confidence and spiritual power, any time I want to go for any robbery operation.
Nasiru further confessed that he was surprise why he did not escape on the day they were arrested and would not tell how many people he had killed during his operations. He explained that those who were killed are those who tried to be stubborn and uncooperative to their directives.
He further explained that he came to Nigeria through an Islamic scholar who employed him as night guard and worked for the man for several months but was not paid his salary, so he decided to find another means of survival.
He said what came to his mind was robbery and he did not waste time to contact his friend, Umaru Abubakar, who introduced him to other members of the gang who initiated him.
One day, Umaru asked me to follow him to Kara market in Ogun State where I realized that he was into armed robbery business.
And since then, Nasiru said he became active and was involved in several robbery operation within Lagos and Ogun States axis.
The suspects were arrested by SARS after the killing of a security guard on 11 May, 2014 at No.7 Jamiu Olotu Street, Isheri Magodo area, Lagos.
Nasiru confessed, that the late Chief Security Officer, (CSO), of the Omole Estate in Lagos, was their gang leader who recruited and provided them with arms for their robbery operations.
They usually operated on the Lagos-Ibadan Express way, where they robbed innocent travellers and snatched expensive cars at gunpoint from their owners. The cars, he said, were taken across the border to sell.
He explained that since he was recruited, into the robbery gang, he had snatched over seven Toyota Camry cars and sold them at a give away prices. According to Nasiru who is currently singing like a Kenery bird, each Camry cars, depending on the model, sells between N350, 000 and N650, 000, and Highlander saloon jeep goes for N550, 000 and N 700, 000.
He also confessed that he normally looked out for clean Toyota Camry cars, especially on the high ways, or those ones parked at the supermarkets and snatched them at gun point because Toyota Camry cars sells like 'Pure water' across the border.
