Dr. Chimezie Osigwe, 64, is a
retired school principal of Awa
Community Secondary School,
Ejemekwuru in Oguta local
government area of Imo State.
He not only allegedly killed his
mother, he was said to have also
dried her remains and stored
them in a cupboard in a room
that allegedly served as his
shrine!
The 78-year old mother, Mrs.
Lucy Osigwe, reportedly went
missing sometime in 2003, some
10 years ago! There was no clue
whatsoever about her where-
abouts.
Dr. Osigwe lived in a dilapidated
house. He had no fleet of cars
and estates. Some members of
his Ejemekwuru community said
he was a recluse. Nobody
understood his ways. Everything
surrounding him suggested
abject poverty!
Two stories were told about how
the remains of his allegedly
missing mother were found. One
of the stories had it that a
relation of the man was not
particularly happy that Osigwe
was reluctant to settle his
indebtedness to him and decided
to search his house to help
himself with whatever he could
lay his hands on.

But instead of finding cash, the
young boy allegedly stumbled
on the old woman’s remains and
narrated the story to other
relations who then mobilized
and stormed Osigwe’s shrine
where the boy’s story was
allegedly confirmed.
The other story had it that some
youths from feelers from the late
woman’s maternal home,
Amakohia, Awa, also in Oguta
local council area, showed that
they made the startling
discovery.
A villager, who spoke to Sunday
Vanguard, said that following the
inexplicable disappearance of
the old woman, some villagers
decided to double check the
stories told by Osigwe.
“On getting to Ejemekwuru, our
people demanded to know why
the woman had remained
missing for 10 years. the son
told the villagers that his mother
was mad at a point and ran
away to an unknown place”, the
villager recounted.
Not satisfied with the response,
as well as the non-chalant
attitude allegedly exhibited by
the son, the villagers, according
to the villager, went berserk,
destroying things in sight and
ended up spotting the large
cupboard containing the remains
of their loved one.
“With this startling discovery, the
villagers quickly lodged a
complaint with the police who
subsequently swung into
action”, he stated.
The suspect, Dr Chimezie Osigwe
Confirming the discovery of the
woman’s body, Imo State
Commissioner of Police, Mr.
Mohammed Katsina, said it was
found in a large cupboard inside
the shrine located in the
suspect’s private room.
“The missing woman’s lifeless
body was found in a village
called Ezuru Umuagwu,
Ejemekwuru, Oguta local
government area of Imo State”,
the CP said.
“The corpse of the 78-year-old
Mrs. Osigweh, declared missing
in 2003, was found in a large
cupboard inside the shrine in a
private room in a circumstance
depicting ritual practice. “The
embalmed body, which was kept
in that condition for about 10
years, was alleged to have been
placed in the warehouse by her
son, Chief Dr. Chimezie Osigweh,
a 64-year old retired school
principal”.
The Imo police boss alleged that
the suspect was a member of a
sect, adding that “preliminary
assessment of the scene of crime
revealed that the late woman
could have been murdered for
ritual purpose”.
Katsina also alleged that
members of a sect used to hold
secret nocturnal meetings in the
place to enhance their occultic
powers.
“The principal suspect, Chief Dr.
Chimezie Osigwe, who is the son
of the woman, has been arrested
and is making useful statement
to the police”, the CP said.
The suspect refused to disclose
why he treated his mother
disrespectfully for ten years. He
rather pleaded that he should
not be forced to say anything
for fear of being attacked by his
enemies.
“Do you know that I have
escaped three assassination
attempts? Please, I will not say
anything because my enemies
are all over the place so that they
will not use it to attack me”,
Osigwe told journalists.
