‘My husband and his relatives used my baby’s placenta for rituals’ Mother Of Twins Makes Shocking Claim

A young mother of twins identified simply as Kafilat has reportedly claimed her husband, Musa Busari, and his relatives collaborated to steal her baby’s placenta for ritual.

According to Vanguard, making the shocking allegation in court, where she sought the dissolution of her 4-year-old marriage, she said,

“Shortly before moving into Busari’s home in 2012, I was already pregnant with a set of twins for him. It happened that I gave birth to one of the two children in my father’s home, and on the following day after moving to his home, I had the second child.

I was very weak because I was in pains, but I discovered that the placenta that came with the child was nowhere to be found.

I asked his relatives that were around me, but they gave me no useful information as to the whereabouts of the placenta.

It is the same question I have continued to ask till today, but the only answer Busari gave me is to forget it and to make it a secret between his family and me.’’

She further claimed that following the missing placenta, Kehinde, the second child, has been having nightmares.

“He shouts in his sleep, regularly fall sick and many more spiritual problems have befallen him as we are regular visitors to the hospital. Worst still, Busari does not show any form of responsibility… and instead, fights me.

Busari and his relatives are diabolic; the only solution is separation.”

However, Busari, who welcomed the divorce, denied the allegations against him, telling the court that he was a peace-loving husband who did everything within his capacity to cater for his family.

“Kafilat is just out to tarnish my image due to her greed. On the issue of catering for the sick child, Kafilat wanted me to start going the fetish way and I made her to understand that it is only prayer that could do it as an Alfa,” Busari said.

The marriage was dissolved by the Mapo Customary Court in Ibadan, on Friday.
