- For over 24 hours, the internet has erupted in fury, engulfed in a fierce lockdown as calls mount for the arrest and harsh punishment of a repentant criminal who brazenly confessed to taking countless lives to feed his dark deity.
- Yinka Ayefele, who controversially provided a platform for this man to voice his chilling revelations, finds himself at the center of a fierce backlash alongside him, to which the singer addressed swiftly.
Yinka Ayefele, the renowned Nigerian gospel singer, has taken a bold stance in the face of widespread outrage from enraged Netizens, urging them to halt the stigmatization of the repentant ritualist and hired assassin he recently interviewed on his radio show.
This individual, now labeled as a changed man, made the shocking confession that he has killed 78 people—mostly women—whom he claimed were sacrificed to feed the blood of his deity on a monthly basis in a desperate attempt to renew his power and wealth.
The magnitude of his confessions has set the internet ablaze, provoking intense outrage not only towards the killer but also toward Ayefele, who has faced a barrage of serious accusations..
In a courageous response to the backlash, Ayefele took to an audio call with media personality Yinka TNT on her online platform, addressing the raging controversy directly.
He began by vehemently refuting claims from traditional worshippers who accused him of disrespecting their way of practice through his interview.
Clarifying his intentions, Ayefele elaborated on the decision to conceal the ritualist’s identity during the interview. He asserted that this choice was grounded in his moral ethics rather than an attempt to shield the man from accountability.
Yinka TNT echoed his sentiments, reinforcing the idea that ethical journalism can still engage with uncomfortable truths.
However, the crux of Ayefele’s message was a heartfelt plea for empathy in the face of public outrage. He urged those demanding the arrest and prosecution of the repentant criminal to reconsider their approach, argued that stigmatizing him could push him back into a life of crime—a life from which he has already served time in prison.
