Ritual Allegations Spark Fears in Idanre Ahead of Party Primary

A popular Yoruba saying—“One with God is the majority”—has resurfaced as party supporters in Idanre warn of alleged spiritual tactics ahead of tomorrow’s primary. Claims circulating among locals describe fetish practices by some aspirants, involving a slaughtered goat, intestines, pap, bean cake and other items packed in a calabash. A video clip links Akinboni Kayode (“Kayval”) to the incident, drawing harsh criticism. Observers also allege that campaign funds were taken to a shrine for spiritual backing before distribution. Many in the progressive camp insist true leadership must be based on service and the will of the people, not fear or manipulation. Residents recall past dark moments and urge traditional rulers, community leaders and security agencies to remain vigilant. Despite the tension, loyalists remain confident that any alleged spiritual plots are “dead on arrival.”
