It is generally believed that serial killers don’t exist in Nigeria, unlike most Western and Asian countries. This belief stems from the fact that Nigeria has not really experienced a wave of serial killing like the way the U.S. did in the 70s (God forbid we do). And Unlike serial Killers who kill people just for the sake of psychological gratification, most Nigerian murderers are usually with a motive mostly for terrorism and armed robbery. However, taking a deep dive into the archives, I discovered they have been a few cases of serial killing in Nigeria in history, carried out by an individual who derives pleasure from inflicting pain on others and feels a compulsive need to do so. Without any further ado here are the most notorious serial killers in Nigeria’s history.

Clifford Nwa Orji
Clifford Nwa Orji is a Nigerian serial Killer and cannibal, he was indicted in numerous cases of kidnappings, and the sale of human body parts. Little is known about his childhood, apart from the fact that he was born in Enugu State, before moving to Lagos where he carried out most of his Nefarious activities.

Clifford was initially a razor-blade merchant but later proclaimed himself a shaman, a “native doctor Chinneyelu”. He conducted his shady business in a makeshift shrine under the bridge and was reported to wander the streets, pretending to be insane.

He carried his Nefarious activities without any suspicion until February 3, 1999, when a shackled and dying woman was discovered near his abode. Upon further investigation, decaying and cooked human body parts and skulls were found in his shack.
