Background story.

An unidentified corpse was found having been killed with a goat around it, probably killed for stealing the goat. It remained at the spot there in Nnewi unknown and unidentified for some days.

Unknown Corpse

After some days, someone from a neighbouring town Ukpor claimed he knows the person facially, and that is the deceased is from Ukpor town. And went on to inform the family, who went into mourning.

The arrangement was made for the burial to take place in the compound of the alleged dead person. Coffin was bought. And they used it to go to the spot at Nnewi and take the 'identified' corpse to Ukpor for burial.

As the burial was about to start in Ukpor. Someone just decided to try the number of the so-called dead man. Lo and behold. He said he did not die but fully alive doing his business at Nnewi.

He was advised to rush to Ukpor and prevent his burial. As he reached his compound, everyone including the man of God who was to conduct the burial, ran away.

I know it sounds like Nollywood. But it is real and bizarre.

When the family saw that their son was not dead but alive, they ordered the corpse and it's coffin to be returned back to wherever they brought it from.

On returning the corpse to the original spot at Nnewi where it was carried from, the indigenes of Nnewi refused that the corpse would be allowed to be returned to Nnewi saying it is a taboo to return a corpse after carrying it away.

Not knowing what else to do, the people from Ukpor still dropped it at that spot at Nnewi. Immediately, the people of Nnewi took the unknown corpse, which is now inside a white coffin and took it to the boundary between Ukpor and Nnewi.

And 3 weeks later, the corpse still remains abandoned inside the white coffin at the boundary between Ukpor and Nnewi
