A policeman told Punch “This morning two men came to the command claiming that they were the sons of
the woman. The men said their mother was not a witch and were very
angry with the manner the rumour was spreading. They said they were
shocked that youths could attack an old woman in her 80s and they were even asking for justice because the woman sustained bruises on her head.”
Police PRO Ngozi Braide also said “Yes she has been released to her son. The family said due to her old
age, she was very ill and was brought from Ibadan to Lagos to stay with
one of her sons. The woman’s daughter-in-law said she went to buy drugs
for her nearby, but by the time she returned home, the woman had left
the house.”
