According to Sodipe, anytime he was going for an operation, the herbalist would tell him to kneel down in front of him and he (Ajani) would make some incantations and then put something on his tongue three times.
Shodipe finally opened up on how he escaped from the police custody hours after he was rearrested by the Oyo state police command.
He said his escape was perfected when he was taken out by a police officer to have his bath.
“The new female DPO asked officer Funsho to allow me to take my bath. He cautioned me not to try to escape when I am taking my bath. “I escaped when I saw him discussing with another person. I climbed the borehole pole and jumped the fence. The people living in the area saw me when I escaped but they did not raise any alarm,” he said.
