Hunter Allegedly Sells Junior Brother’s Skull For N12,000
LAGOS JUNE 19TH (NEWSRNAGERS)-A 52-year-old man and hunter, Ugoegu Nwaji, a native of Onunwakpu Igbeagu in Izzi Local Government Area of Ebonyi State, has exhumed his late younger brother’s skull and sold it for N12,000.
The state Commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Francis Nnadi, who paraded him at the headquarters of the Corps in Abakaliki, the Ebonyi State capital, said the man sold the skull to a native doctor for ritual purposes.
According to Nnadi, Nwaji exhumed the remains of his younger brother, named Ogor Mmboyi, and sold the skull to the native doctor, Nwodo Nwenyi, who needed it to perform Okite money rituals for his clients.
“The skull was found at the shrine of Nwenyi at the same address. The said corpse died two years ago, according to the hunter,” he said.
The command also paraded three suspects accused of economically sabotaging the state government by allegedly conspiring to steal 68 bags of cement meant for the ongoing construction of a two-kilometre concrete road at Ekerigwe village, Umuezekoha community of Ezza North Local Government Area of the state.
The suspects include the procurement officer of the company handling the project, the site security officer, and the driver of the conveying truck.
Nnadi disclosed that out of the 68 bags of cement looted, only 16 bags were recovered by men of the Corps, and the suspects would be charged to a court of competent jurisdiction for prosecution after in-depth investigations.
