Man Killed By Ritualists On Yam Festival Day In Owerri. by omenala(m): 12:54pm On Sep 14, 2013
Avu autonomous community in Owerri West Imo state was recently thrown into confusion when a man identified as Mr Tenesson Ekwuba was found with his private part, eyes and ears missing. He disappeared on the 28th of august in the afternoon, non of his neighbours saw him leave the compound, but some kids playing within the neighbourhood claimed they last saw him entering the home of one of his junior brothers. His wife raised an alarm when she couldn't locate her husband. But no concrete action was taken until a week later the already decomposing body of the victim miraculously reappeared in his own backyard.
It was alleged that he had been in a land dispute with his younger brothers, the victim's wife claimed that the younger brothers had been plotting to kill her husband for sometime now and she had reported the plot to the community some weeks ago. When the police arrived the scene they made no arrests but tried to calm the already restive youths who were demonstrating and gearing to attack the homes brothers of the late Tenesson. A petition was written against the DPO of Umuguma police station for his nonchalant response to the incident, whose men were also seen drinking beer beside the body.

Friday Last night, by 11pm a strange detachment of policemen who claimed to be from Umuahia command tried to spirit the body away only to be resisted by the youths who didn't trust thier intentions. The body has been on the floor of the compound, since saturday 7th of september. Late Tenesson survived by his wife and brothers, he had no offspring of his own.
