The Osun state police command has uncovered a camp in Iwo town where people are allegedly dehumanized under the pretense that they are receiving treatment for mental illness.
ChannelsTV reports that the home was discovered after a tip-off. According to the state commissioner of police, Ola Fimihan Adeoye, 26 people have since been
evacuated from the site, three dead bodies were removed and deposited at the mortuary while one person passed out on the way to the government hospital, Asubiaro in Osogbo.
The owner of the weird camp, Kamardeen Akanmu, has been arrested. During interrogation, he claimed the place was a spiritual healing centre for people who were mentally challenged. He went on to claim that he buried some of the victims who had died, within the premises, with the consent of their relatives.
Those alive have however been taken to a rehabilitation centre in Ilobu town for proper treatment. See video of the home below:
