"I wanted to use my mother for ritual. I am 18 years old. My father is dead. It was one man called One Love that told me to use my mother for money ritual.

"He promised to give me N50,000 if I killed my mother and sleep with her. He said I should cut my mother’s ear and fingers and bring them to him.

“I wanted to cut the ears and fingers before the people came in. I slept with my mother only once. I pressed my mother’s neck to kill her while she was sleeping.

"The One Love sells drugs. He put something inside the drink he gave and he told me to go and kill my mother.

"The day I went to his house with policemen, the man has ran away. I hail from Oghara. I work in a pure water factory.
