How I Use Tortoise For Robbery - Notorious Robber

     

When Nasim Aliu, leader of notorious armed robbery gang, was arrested with his tortoise, he could not believe his eyes.

Daily Sun reports that operatives of the Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS) unit of the Kogi state police command have been on his trail for months before he was finally nabbed with his fetish tortoise.
While talking to news correspondents, Aliu who is a native of Agheva Obehi­ra in Okehi local government area of Kogi state, confessed he got his power from the magical tortoise. He consults the tortoise before going on operations and sometimes takes it with him during operations. He also expressed surprise at how he was arrested cheaply. He said:
“Yes, I am a leader of a robbery gang which robbed on major highways in Kogi and Edo States, we had operated for more than 12 times Successfully without being caught and the success of these rob­beries was as a result of the protection of this tortoise.
“Anytime I wanted to go for robbery operation, I would consult the tortoise who will tell me whether the robbery would be successful or not. After say­ing some incantation to it, the tortoise would speak and tell me to go or not to go.
“In serious operation, I would hang the tortoise on my chest, covering it with my shirt and anytime I did that ,it helped to protect me from bullets. No enemy’s bullets can hit me any time I hang it on my chest.”


Aliu who looked ruffled, touched the tortoise in the presence of the sun newspaper correspnondent and retorted, “but you my great magical tortoise, you failed to tell me that the police were around the corner of my house, you failed to speak and you failed to give your usual signs.” He looked up and said: “It is now that I believe this adage ‘every day for the thief, one day for the owner.”
