• We initially wanted to use an old woman but I begged them not to – Suspect

• Police launch manhunt for killer uncle , others

The joy heralding the birth of a child is usually indescribable let alone arrival of twins . That was the feeling seven years ago when Chiagozie and Chidalu Agwunobi, were welcomed to the Oliseh clan in Oko Ogbele Community , Oshimili South Local Government Area of Delta State . They were a bundle of joy to their parents as they grew up happily in months and years .

Few days ago , that joy was blown away like a candle in the wind when they went missing and their dismembered bodies later found in a bush . They were cruelly killed by their uncle , Onuwa Oliseh , who is still at large .

Onuwa reportedly lured the seven -year -old male twins to the bush within the neighbourhood on Friday , March 6 , after they returned from school and butchered them . He was said to have removed some of their body parts for money rituals and dumped the remains .

Investigation by operatives of the Inspector -General of Police Intelligence Response Team in the state led to the arrest of Onuwa ’s accomplice, Kelvin Uzor , who is also a relation of the twins .

“ Police got information that on March 6 , the twins were missing from their parents’ house . Their bodies were later found in the bush on March 8 with some parts of their bodies mutilated . Their eyes, hands and private parts were missing . Police began investigation and generated enough intelligence that led to the arrest of Uzor . He confessed that they were a three - man gang and wanted to do money ritual with the body parts ,” a senior officer told Saturday PUNCH.

Our correspondent learnt that Onuwa ’s younger brother , Iweka , who attended the same school with the twins , told the police that the suspect asked him to lure the deceased from the school.

“ I am a primary four pupil of Ekeanya Primary School. On March 6 , at about 6 .30 am, my elder brother Onuwa Ajei Oliseh , asked me if I would go to school and I told him yes. He asked if I can help him bring out the twins from the school before the school closes that day and I told him no because their teacher would not agree.

“ That day when I came back from school, I saw my brother place a cutlass on the table where he was eating while I went to the backyard . It was later I heard that the twins were missing and their dead bodies were found in the bush, ” he told detectives .

The twins ’ father, Agwunobi Oliseh , stated that Onuwa visited his house that Friday in the morning and asked him if they ( the twins ) would go to school. He said he responded in affirmative, unknown that Onuwa was plotting to kill his beloved kids.

The 52 -year - old farmer said when his children returned from school , Onuwa came back and asked them to follow him to the stream in the community .

He said, “ I am a traditionalist and a farmer . I ’m married with seven kids . My twins were seven years old . On March 6 in the early morning , Onuwa came to my house and inquired if my late children would go to school and I said yes. I later learnt he told his younger brother , Iweka , to help him take my children out of the school premises . He said he wanted to go somewhere with them .

“ Later in the day , he went to their school and tried to take them out but he was chased away by their teacher . As soon as they came back , he came to my house and asked them to follow him to the stream . I think they were on their way when he brought out a cutlass and killed them .”

The distraught father , who noted that he and his wife were not around when Onuwa took the twins away , said he was told the suspect ran home with bloodstains .

“ According to his brother , he ran back home with his hands stained with blood. He then asked the brother to pour water on his hands while he washed the machete with which he killed the twins . He left for Uzor ’s house and both of them went to one Anam .

“ It was when I came back later in the day with my wife that I realised the twins were missing. While I was running around , Iweka told me that it was Onuwa who took my children . Onuwa ran away but we were able to find Uzor who told us where their bodies were dumped . We went there and found their mutilated bodies. Their eyes, tongues and hands were removed, ” he added.
Uzor , in his statement , admitted the twins were killed for rituals but denied partaking in their murder.

He said one of his friends, called Chukwudi, told him of a traditionalist in Anambra who could help them to perform money rituals with children not above age 12 .

The 18 -year - old primary school leaver stated that he informed Onuwa, who agreed to the plan .
He said, “ I stopped schooling after my primary school education because my parents did not have money. I worked for a farmer called Egwiyo . I served him for many years and he promised to give me money this year . Chukwudi told me there was a place where we could do money rituals in Anambra and he asked if I was interested .

“ We later told Onuwa who agreed to do it . I told them I was not interested but if they want to do it , they could go ahead . I told them I would be happy if they succeeded. I was sleeping when Onuwa called me and said he had killed the twins . He said he took their bodies to one native doctor in Delta but the man told him he wasn’t into money rituals.

“ He later called me when the heat was much and told me where he dumped the bodies. Now, police said I was the one who killed the twins . Onuwa took the body parts to a herbalist in Aguleri , Anambra .’’

Uzor said immediately he learnt about the twin’s murder, he ran to Anambra where he was tracked down by the police . He added that he gave tacit support for the crime in the hope that he would be given money to buy a car and build a house if it worked out .

He said, “ I wanted to become a young chief because most of the young men I know did not work as hard as I did and now they are millionaires . I am a farmer and hardworking but I was not making enough money . I have no savings. That was why I somehow agreed to be part of the plan .

“ Onuwa convinced me it was the fastest way to make money and that most of our colleagues made money through that means . My greatest mistake was that I did not inform my family when Onuwa suggested that we should use the twins
.
“ I love the twins so much and their parents are nice. I cautioned him but I don ’t know that he would still go ahead to kill them . They normally went to his house to play; so it was easy for him to take them out without anyone being suspicious . I was not in the bush when he killed them .”

Uzor revealed further that the initial plan was to use an elderly woman in the community for the money ritual but he prevailed on the gang to spare the woman because she was generous .

“ Initially , they wanted to use one old woman known as Nne Amaka , but I pleaded with them to leave her because she is nice . If I passed by and begged her for water , she would give me water and even food.

“ I feel bad because he betrayed me . I am appealing to young men that money ritual does not pay . I am a hard working man and well known . Even when my name was mentioned in the crime , a lot of people came out to defend me . I am sorry . I want the family to forgive me , ” he added .

Saturday PUNCH learnt that the remains of the twins had been deposited at the General Hospital , Igbuzor while IRT detectives led by DCP Abba Kyari had launched a manhunt for the fleeing suspects.

Uncle from the pit of hell

Why Killing For Rituals, While Money Cant Give Life? This Is Why Vanity Is Vanity.

Guys, please Let's take it easy.

Nothing good comes from the devil.

One thing is certain, provided you're honest and smart working, one day you will be rich.

If the masses can be educated on topics like this, if the knowledge can be spread among all classes of people, if people can be made to see that rituals doesn't guarantee wealth, and juju isn't real, then we'll surely see a decline in such crimes.
Understand this, it's not just about the act itself, but the belief... If the belief of such rubbish can be eradicated, people will rely more on their sweat and efforts, rather than killing their fellow human to acquire wealth.

Their eyes, hands and private parts were missing,
He should be killed the same way, wicked uncle.

For those who entrust their kids with one uncle or relatives, this is a lesson for you.
