Reno Omokri, a socio-political activist, has revealed two methods for ending ritual killings and Advanced Fee Fraud, also known as Yahoo Yahoo in Nigeria.
Ritual killings and Yahoo Yahoo, according to Omokri, will end when parents stop having children they can’t care for.
He believes that social vices will be eradicated once parents stop viewing their children as a form of retirement income.

In-laws must stop using their daughter’s husband as a source of income, according to an ex-aide to former President Goodluck Jonathan.
“For yahoo and rituals to end in Nigeria, two things must happen,” Omokri wrote in a series of tweets.
“Parents must stop having children as a form of old age pension.”
“In-laws should stop looking at their daughter’s husband as a source of income.”
“Yahoo and rituals will not stop if these two things don’t stop!”
Ritual killings have been on the rise in recent years across the country.
The Federal Government announced plans to launch a national sensitization campaign against money rituals in an effort to combat the vices.
