The 77-year-old Prophet Babatunde, however, claimed that it was not human parts but that of pigs.
The lid on the prophet’s alleged heinous act was blown off following the arrest of a suspected kidnapper, Jeremiah Adeola, last Saturday.
Adeola was said to a specialist in kidnapping children and had confessed that the prophet was the receiver of his victims.
Forty-two year-old Adeola added that recently Prophet Babatunde bought two children at N50,000 each from him.
The state Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Iliyasu, paraded the Prophet on Wednesday in his church at Ota.
Iliyasu said, “After Adeola’s arrest his confession implicated Prophet Babatunde and he was taken to his church at Iyana-Iyesi Ota, where the 77-year-old Prophet, and one Haruna Afolabi, a 42-year-old traditional worshipper, were arrested.
“The floor of the church was dug as described by the first suspect, and suspected human parts were brought out.”
