A 94-year-old traditional priest has been arrested in Nigeria after cursing the alleged perpetrators of a recent spate of violence.
Anazo Ilomuanya was hired by a group of youths attempting to end killings affecting Ozubulu town, in the south-east of the country, police say.
The police arrested the traditional priest after local people complained.
The conflict, thought to be between rival drug gangs, led to the killing of 13 churchgoers last year.
It is believed that the perpetrators mistakenly thought the intended target of the attack was attending the St Philip's Church.
