The Niger State Police Command has arrested Shuaibu Ibrahim,35, of Safiu village in Toto Local Government Area of Nasarawa State with a human eyeball.
According to the police report, operatives attached to the Gawu Babangida Division in Gurara Local Government Area arrested Ibrahim.
It was learnt that the police operatives apprehended the suspect in the early hours of Thursday following a tip-off from a member of the public.
The eyeball was said to have been removed from a victim of a communal clash between the Igbira and Bassa people in Nasarawa State.
Northern City News gathered that one Ojo, now at large, reportedly gave the eyeball to the suspect to sell in Niger State for N250,000.
Further checks revealed that the suspect had been involved in the illegal trafficking of human parts across the northern states for over five years.
The suspect confessed
A lot of people are interested in buying human parts but I don’t know what they use them for. My duty is to deliver as and when due to our clients and collect the money.
“I don’t even ask clients what they are using the human eyeballs for, but I guess it must be something serious.”
