The story of a young man Chukwudi Ani who pregnanted his cousin sister one Rosemary Ani has taken another twist and dimension. It would be recall that live affairs started after the sister visited him for holidays some years back leading to pregnancy which is frowned and forbidden according to the tradition of people of Nara Unateze. HRH Igwe Nathan Ogbu the paramount ruler of Nara has demand that both the young man and the girl should return home for cleansing of the land. One of the villagers who does not want his name printed told our correspondent that Chukwudi has repeatedly ignored to come home from his base in Lagos for the cleansing because him and his sister would dance round the Orie market stack naked while other animals sacrifice would be performed as required by their tradition. It was also gathered that Chief Dickson Ani who is Chukwudi's father passed away because of atrocities of his son. One year later Chief Okonkwo Ani who is Rosemary's father and Chukwudi's uncle died, two years later Chukwudi's mother Mrs Grace Ani died. A strong message and delegates from Nara was sent to Lagos to speak with Chukwudi to return home for his mother's burial which Chukwudi promised and later fulfilled and came home for his mother's burial , a day after the burial the immediate family members assembled to appeal to Chukwudi to convince his sister to return home for the cleansing of the land as well as stop further unfortunate deaths in their family. Further troubles ensued when one Mr.Osita Okonkwo called Chukwudi with abusive names leading to fight between both of them and Chukwudi picked a bottle broke it and stabbed Osita on the neck. Osita died three days later in the hospital. The matter has been reported to police at Nara police station. It is believed Chukwudi is at large or hiding somewhere because the police has traced him to his house and office address in Lagos. It's now from accusation of atrocity to murderer for Chukwudi. |
