Prosper plans to use the money he realises from using his parents for wealth ritual to take care of them.
This is what he told policemen when he was arrested. He is a 25-year-old Nigerian youth.
He makes a confession with the clothes of his parents in his hands. They are local Ankara wears commonly patronized by elderly folks in Nigeria.
The youth planned to take the clothes to a black magic priest to perform rituals required to bring him wealth. At 25 years of age, he thinks he has suffered and wants an end to his money issues.
Getting arrested by the police however may ultimately mean his end. He is not alone in his desire for enormous wealth.
