He was apprehended early on Saturday and turned over to the police where he told preliminary investigators he had walked by line from Sinoe County and was among two hundred and fifty men sent out to the community to poison drinking wells. He has however refused to name any sponsor nor provide any further information but has continued to act if he is mentally ill.
