According to reports, the herbalist’s friends and some hotel personnel transported him to the hospital, where doctors declared him dead.
Associates of the late native doctor were alleged to have attributed his death to “magun”, a local charm placed on married women by their husbands to harm lovers who sleep with them.
The aggrieved supporters of the late herbalist were said to have stormed the church where the husband of the lady is the shepherd and v@ndalized it in anger.
The married woman has reportedly been arrested and is being held in protective custody to facilitate an investigation and also to protect her from the angry youths.
The remains of the deceased have been deposited in the morgue of the Ekiti State Specialist Hospital in Ikere.
Ekiti Police PRO, DSP Sunday Abutu, confirmed the incident to LIB. He said the police received a report from hotel staff and they visited the scene where the body of the deceased was taken to the hospital and confirmed dead.
He, however, stated that he cannot confirm if the deceased was a herbalist.
He added that the woman involved has been invited for questioning.
