It is believed that the commercial motorcyclist and eight others are still in captivity.
The Yoruba militia group, Oodua Peoples’ Congress (OPC), said yesterday that the place where the victims are being held could not be visible to the ordinary eyes.
It vowed to use “every means available” to discover the “hidden dungeon where more victims are being held on the premises”.
An OPC chieftain in Ibadan Rotimi Olumo told reporters that the group is working hard to uncover the purported cellar where the missing motorcyclist was phoning from.
Olumo said:
“There are strong indications that some people might still be trapped there because the missing motorcyclist who phoned his wife and friends said he heard the voices of his friends who were looking for him from the place where he was kept underground.Olumo, who is the OPC Chairman in Ibadan and lives in the neighbourhood of the Soka den, said the OPC at the national level has signified interest to wade into the matter.
“He claimed that there were eight others with him in a place there that has not been discovered. His family members and those of the other victims are in anguish.
“The fact about it is that such places cannot be seen by ordinary eyes and that is why we cannot fold our arms. We are taking serious steps and making deep consultations in the other realm to uncover the hidden place and the people behind the horrible act.”
He said: “If Boko Haram is not disturbing us in the region, why should we allow ritualists to make Ibadan, a peaceful city, a danger zone.”
