In an essay published by Premium Times, Ayo Akerele recounts a 2016 conversation with a religious figure who said a friend had urged him to buy a ring purportedly used to perform miracles. Akerele says he was shocked by the price and the circumstances described.

Ayo Akerele has recalled a 2016 conversation about an alleged occultic ring in an essay published by Premium Times. Akerele writes that a servant of God complained to him that a friend was pressuring him to purchase the ring. The ring was purportedly presented as an object that could be used to perform miracles.

According to Akerele’s account, the religious figure refused the offer. Akerele then asked about the price and says he was stunned by the answer. The supplied excerpt ends while introducing further concerns about the pastor involved.

It does not provide the name of the religious figure, the price of the ring, the identity of the friend or details of what happened afterwards. Premium Times published the piece under the title “Captured By Sodom,” by Ayo Akerele. The account is presented as the writer’s recollection and does not establish the alleged powers or use of the ring.
