A total of 1,736 respondents were selected using sinple random techniques. The instrument employed for data collection was a questionnaire. In addition, the information gathered waws analyzed using the statistical package for social sciences. The results indicated that the increase in money ritual-related killings in Ilorin Emirate is a result of general belief that ritual sacrifices enhance fortunes, the boundless desire for material wealth among Nigerians, unemployment, and poverty in Nigeria.
