A 42-year-old self-professed Islamic cleric, known locally
as Alfa, has reportedly been arrested and charged before Isolo Magistrates’ court
for engaging a 34 year-old woman in sex deliverance that lasted for
three days in Lagos State.
The Oyo State-born
cleric, Jamiu Mukaila, reportedly defrauded Bose Alele to the tune of
N350,000 after which he engaged her in a three-day marathon sex under
the false pretence of casting evil spirit out of her.
The incident happened at Ire-Akari Road in Isolo, a suburb of Lagos, where the victim resides and where the prayer took place.
According
to Bose, who is still in shock, Mukaila approached her and introduced
himself as Alfa and told her that he had a revelation from God
concerning making her life better.
He told her that she was
possessed by evil spirit called mammy water (mermaid) and that she
needed deliverance to cast out the evil spirit so that favour will come
her way.
She said part of the condition he gave her was that she
would pay N350,000 which would be used to buy spiritual materials and
that she must sleep with him for three days.She said he assured
her that she would enjoy favours after he had worked on her and that she
would equally get a husband of her choice after the deliverance.
Bose
revealed that she did not know what came over her immediately after the
encounter as she paid the N350,000 he requested and allowed him have
sex with her for three days before she came to her senses. She
said immediately she realised that she had fallen for the cleric’s
deception, she went to Aswani Police Division and reported what
happened.Mukaila was arrested and taken to the station where he allegedly confessed to committing the crimes.
He
allegedly told the police that he was born into an Alfa family in Oyo
State and inherited the gift of prophecy and deliverance. He said he was married and has four children and resides at Adeyemi area of Isolo where he met Bose.
When
the police prosecutor, Inspector Abas Abayomi charged Mukaila to court
with stealing and obtaining sex under false pretence under the Criminal
Code, he pleaded not guilty.
The presiding Magistrate, Mrs Joy Ugbomoiko granted him bail in the sum of N100,000 with two sureties in like sum.Mukaila was remanded in prison custody pending when he will perfect his bail.The matter was adjourned till 5 August, 2015 for trial.
