Nigerian gospel star Yinka Ayefele is facing significant backlash from upset internet users following a shocking confession by a former ritualist that aired on his show.
The interview revealed the ritualistâs disturbing history of killing over 78 innocent people as sacrifices to his gods, prompting concerns about Ayefeleâs decision to feature such a guest. The ritualist recounted chilling details of regularly sacrificing women, claiming their blood was offered to a deity that thrived on human life.
Notable figures, including Professor Pius Oyeniran Afobaje from the University of Ilorin, have spoken out about the situation. On his TikTok account, he questioned Ayefeleâs intentions regarding the contentious interview, expressing doubt that any god in Yoruba culture would demand human sacrifice. He also urged the singer to take responsibility and assist the police in finding the alleged bloodthirsty deity if the ritualistâs claims are indeed true.
