A 19-year-old self-proclaimed “native doctor,” Timothy Dauda, has been arrested in Edo State following the death of his client during a test of a bulletproof charm.

The incident occurred in Onumu Community, Akoko-Edo Local Government Area, where Dauda had been hired to create and test the charm.

According to the Edo State Police Command’s spokesperson, SP Moses Joel Yamu, the client, identified as Alex Ezekiel, requested the charm and agreed to a demonstration of its effectiveness. However, the test turned tragic when Ezekiel was shot and fatally injured. He was rushed to Ifejola Hospital in Igarra, where he was pronounced dead.

Yamu stated that Dauda, who specializes in preparing charms against guns and cutlasses, was arrested by officers from the Igarra Division. The suspect is expected to face prosecution after the investigation is completed.
