His body was covered in a white substance with some plants believed to be herbs around his neck like a chain.
As he walked, the supposed fetish priest was holding a bottle with content believed to be local alcohol 'akpeteshie'
The video, which was shared by @ghpage_tv, showed the youth following the man and asking him to deal with the police officers supervising the demolition.
When he got closer to the Police, a voice thought to be that of a Senior police officer kept saying, "Cease him, cease him. Whisk him away".
