Anifowose Olalekan, an Osun State artisan, has told the tragic
story of his family members died.



In this interview, he tells BOLA BAMIGBOLA about the death of
his mother, wife and nine-year-old nephew in a healer’s home
in Osogbo

Tell us briefly about yourself.

My name is Anifowose Olalekan. I am 34 years old. I am an
artisan.

You reportedly lost your mother, wife and nine-month-old
nephew in one day at a healer’s home. What exactly
happened?

What happened was that my mother was sick and we took her
to a clinic owned by Mr Ojo Taiwo, which is located behind
Olofa Grammar School, Ofatedo (Osun State). The clinic has
no signpost and we don’t know if it is government-approved or
not but our neighbour, Iya Gold, who referred us to the place,
said the name of the clinic is Ifeoluwa. The man running the
clinic posed as a doctor to us. He had nurses that were
assisting him in running the clinic. He has a residential
building there and he used a room as a clinic. He also has a
Cherubim and Seraphim Church within the compound.

What happened at the ‘clinic’ when you took your mother
there?

On getting there, Mr Ojo conducted a test on my mother. He
said the test revealed that she had diabetes and cough. We
knew she was diabetic before taking her there. He gave me a
list of things to buy and a bill of N104,000 to be paid for her
treatment. We deposited N50,000 that day, which was
Monday, June 23. The following day, we gave him N10,000.
There was an improvement and we were happy about it. Later,
I paid him N100,000, leaving only a balance of N40,000. My
wife, Basirat, and my younger sister, Fatimoh, a nursing
mother, with a nine-month-old child, were staying in the clinic
to look after my mother.

In the evening of Monday, June 27, my wife called to ask if I
would be coming to the clinic but I told her that I wasn’t
coming because it was threatening to rain. She said the
doctor told them that mama would be needing two pints of
blood, which would cost us about N35,000. I told her to tell
the doctor to send his account details. The doctor did that
and I transferred the money to him.

Around 5am on Tuesday, June 28, a number that I didn’t have
on my contact list was used by the doctor to call me. He
asked me where I was and I replied that I was at home. He
said he would call back and hung up. Shortly later, Iya Gold,
who introduced him to us, came to my house and said we
should go to the clinic together. I asked her what happened, I
asked her if mama was dead but she said no.

When we got to the hospital, we met my younger sister
weeping. The doctor said her nine-month-old baby died and
that when they tried to wake up my wife and my mother, they
found out that they were dead too. He didn’t tell us what
really led to their death.

Was your wife and the nine-month-old child sick too?

No, my wife and the child were hale and hearty. Nothing was
wrong with them.

What did the doctor tell you led to their death?

Strangely, the doctor could not explain what led to their death.

But my younger sister, Fatimoh, explained that the doctor
gave my wife a black soap, which he instructed should be
used by mother, my wife and the nine-month-old child for
bathing. According to my sister, the doctor said being a
nursing mother, she shouldn’t partake in the use of the soap.

The three of them that bathed with the soap died. It was only
my sister, who didn’t use the soap, that is alive now.

Did you ask the doctor about the soap?

We asked the doctor what the soap was meant for but he
denied giving them any soap. He could not come up with any
reasonable defence. But he later confessed at the police
station that he gave the deceased soap to bathe.

What are the police doing about the case?

The police said we should conduct an autopsy on the three
bodies.

Has that been done?

No, it has not been done. The Police demanded N240,000, for
the autopsy. They said if we refuse to pay and carry out the
autopsy on time, they might release the owner of the clinic.
They said only the autopsy would reveal the cause of the
death.

What do you intend to do now?
We want the state government, good people, police and the
general public to help us out. We don’t have the money to for
the autopsy. We have spent a lot on their treatment. I am even
indebted to a lot of people.

Where are the corpses?
They at UNIOSUN Teaching Hospital mortuary in Osogbo here.

Most of the mushroom clinics are actually witchcraft covens. The owner may just have done his blood sacrifice to boost patronage and longevity.
