With a view to wiping out the urgly trend in Nigeria, particularly Benin City where yahoo boys have taking to stealing ladies pants for money ritual, the Oba of Benin, Oba Ewuare II, has warned them todesist from the act or face the consequences.
Oba Ewuare was said to have given this warning on Sunday during a thanksgiving service at the Holy Aruosa Cathedral in Benin to round off the 2018 annual Igue Festival Celebrations, Vanguard reports.
He said youths who cling to the illusion that they could become wealthy by killing people or stealing female underwear for ritual purposes, would no doubt face the consequence.
He added that the behaviour was abominable and alien to Benin customs and tradition. The monarch interceded for Nigeria and her leaders and urged politicians and youths to shun acts that could undermine free, fair and credible elections in 2019.
The Oba also warned politicians to desist from violence and other acts inimical to the electoral process. The Oba was accompanied by his wives to the church service which was conducted in Edo language.
