Women Protest Ritual Killings In Imo on: November 12, 2009, 09:44 PM » Women protest ritual killings in Imo National News Nov 12, 200Report to moderator 24.73.245.250 9 By Chidi Nkwopara OWERRI—Scores of women from Ndiakunwata, Arondizuogu, Ideato North Local Government Area of Imo State, stormed Owerri to stage a peaceful protest over recent ritual killings in their area. Vanguard gathered that unidentified ritualists killed an octogenarian, Mrs. Beatrice Asoanya, and her granddaughter, Miss Chinaza Okereke, while they were sleeping in their home. The women displayed placards with varying inscriptions, which included “our lives are in serious danger,” “we are no longer safe in our community” “we need government’s intervention” and “Ohakim save us”. Speaking to newsmen amidst sobs, Lady Patricia Okereke, the mother of the slain Chinaza, said the suspected ritualists cut off the breast of her mother, Mrs. Asoanya, and drained her blood. Lady Okereke said the women were angered that the suspected killer of the two citizens have been released, adding that the released suspects had since been moved to Abuja by his masters. Okereke wondered why her daughter and mother would be murdered in such a gruesome manner, while the alleged culprits were left off the hook because of alleged influence of those backing him. “I demand that the perpetrators be brought to face the full weight of the law with a view to serving as a deterrence to others,” she pleaded. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2009/11/12/women-protest-ritual-killings-in-imo/ |
