Solving one problem and creating another. Why must they pack them in plastic bags?

Borehole? Was it not too much for a corner? If you're a corner, please don't kill yourself in terms of community service for whatever reason.

Guys have deployed new system of yahoo, just get a small kid then let the kid act your script with your camera on standby then wait for the outcome of the publicity.

You said it all

Bighead9:
You are very wrong, every part of Nigeria has its peculiar problem and a particular Region do crimes like their lives depends on it.

If it can get your ego massaged and you feel happy for few seconds, okay.

Bighead9:
That's what they do to criminals in the East. They celebrate them like herroes, rather than condemn.

You're not right. If anything, the whole country has the same problem.

PerfectJUSTICE:
If you're Igbo and born before the millennium, you'd definitely know about the untold story of Chief Vincent Duru, alias, Otokoto who was infamous for ritual killings. His son Obidiozor Duru then was the kingpin of the notorious Black Secret Cult that was responsible for sporadic robberies and abduction of children within Owerri, Imo State. In fact, following rumours of the nefarious activities of the Otokoto family, Owerri residents subjected the Otokotos under the radar and surveillance.

It is said there's no smoke without fire. Also, when the wind blows, the ruff of the fowl is exposed. On the 19th of September, 1996, Otokoto was incriminated. His dirty linens were washed outside, his exotic hotels, 'Otokoto hotels' were razed down. He was incarcerated and later executed 20 years after indictment.


Who Implicated Him?


It all happened in the capital city of Owerri, Imo State on the 19th of September, 1996 when an 11-year-old innocent boy named Anthony Ikechukwu Okoronkwo was murdered for ritual.

The young boy was a groundnut hawker who frequented the streets of Owerri to sale his wares. On that fateful day, he was walking past Otokoto hotels, when a man identified as Innocent Ekeanyanwu at Otokoto hotels, aged 32, beckoned on him to come.

Unsuspectingly, the young lad excitedly went into the hotel to sell his wares and was treated like a guest. He was given a bottle of chilled Coca-Cola which he chugged down with relish. Sadly, the drink was spiked and soon, poor Ikechukwu slipped into everlasting unconsciousness.

Ekeanyanwu then carried the limp body of Ikechukwu into one of the hotel rooms and what follows after is what both the gods and human beings forbid. He decapitated the boy's head, ripped open his abdomen, harvested his liver, and cropped off his penile tip. He selected other organs he needed and stacked them together in a polythene bag and buried his remains in a shallow grave near the hotel.


HOW PEOPLE GOT TO KNOW


After burying the ill-fated lad, he immediately left the hotel to deliver the head to a big cat, named Chief Leonard Unaogu at Eziama, Ikeduru, near Owerri. Blood was still oozing from the bag when he alighted which stirred the suspicion of the Okada man identified as Mr Hilary Ngọzi Opara. Ekeanyanwu could not deposit the head as Chief Unaogu had already left the town for Lagos. Remember the year was 1996 and there was no mobile phones. He had to go back to Owerri with the head. The bikeman quickly tipped the policemen and they intercepted Ekeanyanwu on his way back to Owerri in a Peugeot 505. Hell was let loose when the news spread. The media even fueled it as they beamed live Ekeanyanwu carrying the fresh head of little Ikechukwu.

The poeple of Owerri went berserk when they beheld the gory sight. They all trooped out in their numbers to Otokoto hotel for protest. The hotel buildings were razed down completely. They equally marched to the palatial mansion of Otokoto nearby and destroyed his expensive cars and choiced properties. The unstoppable rioters equally went round destroying other properties linked to Otokoto, even those of his friends.


FURTHER INVESTIGATIONS


Ekeanyanwu who was later identified as a gardener in Otokoto hotel was remanded in prison. Surprisingly, he died four days later from food poisoning. Luckily before he croaked, he was able to confess. He implicated Chief Unaogu as the mastermind behind the brutal killing of Ikechukwu. In fact, they ran a killing syndicate which specialised in kidnapping and harvesting of human organs for rituals. According to him, Chief Unaogu had directed him to get the human head. He further confessed that the Otokoto and his gang had been in the business as far back as 1970's. The guests at his hotel were not spared too. They were drugged or attacked in the middle of their sleep after which they were dismembered and their organs plucked.

The police swung quickly into action and discovered tens of shallow graves. More than 24 decomposing and dismembered bodies of human beings were exhumed. Chief Unaogu was immediately arrested but he blatantly denied knowing whom Ekeanyanwu was. He was the junior brother of Laz Unaogu, a then serving minister under General Sani Abacha.


TRIALS AND JUDGEMENT


Trial properly commenced on the 9th of December, 1996 with the Okada man, Ngọzi Hilary Opara as the first prosecution witness. Other witnesses came up which include: Ambrose Onah, a police sergeant who recorded the confessional statement of Ekeanyanwu before he was mysteriously killed, Margaret Acholonu, a receptionist in the hotel who confessed that Chief Vincent Duru was actually in the hotel the day poor Ikechukwu was beheaded. Another police sergeant, Sunday Onwuchekwa told the court that Ekeanyanwu had lied about the crime scene. According to Onwuchekwa, Ekeanyanwu had told them he executed poor Ikechukwu and dumped his dead body inside Mba River near Owerri just to mask the actual crime scene. The police was deceived at first with the false trail before information reached them about the commotion at Otokoto hotel.

It was even reported that Chief Vincent Duru had shouted at Ekeanyanwu during the course of the investigation before he was murdered. Otokoto screamed at him in Igbo, 'I mebo la m?' meaning 'Have you implicated me?'

The distraught mother of the poor lad, Laeticia Okoronkwo, Sulaiman Idris Ibe, the police officer on seat when Hilary Opara the Okada man came to testify, another police photographer and Ralph Nwaiwu, the doctor that performed autopsy on poor Ikechukwu all testified in court.

The case snailed on without progress for three years as there were series of adjournments, absence of presiding judges and lawyers even to the transfer and retirement of judges. There were reports about the preferential treatment given to Chief Unaogu because he was the Minister's brother. The case was stalled until Justice Chioma Nwosu-Iheme, a powerful and fearless judge, took over the case on 28th April, 1999.

She sentenced the seven suspects linked to the murder to death. Their names were:

Chief Vincent Duru (Otokoto), Alban Ajaegbu, Samson Nnamito, Ebenezer Egwueke, Lawrence Ebu, Rufus Anyanwu and Chief Leonard Unaogu.

In fact, while delivering her judgement, Justice Nwosu-Iheme referred Otokoto and Unaogu as a hardened and unrepentant murderer and a highly-sophisticated criminal respectively. She said that the blood of poor Ikechukwu must be a very strong and powerful one that screamed to God in high heavens for vengeance.

After her epic judgement, all the convicts were ferried to Port Harcourt Prissons in February, 2003 pending their execution. Their lawyers kept on appealing the judgement which was futiles as the sentence of execution was still upheld.

Finally twenty years after the inglorious saga, Otokoto was hanged. His execution took place on Sunday, November 13, 2016. Chief Unaogu on his part died in Port Harcourt prisons in very mysterious circumstances.


LESSONS


Evil is evil and no evil would go impunity as what goes around, comes around. Just work hard and believe in yourself and legitimate hustle. Forget about the get-rich-quick syndrome. Be careful. Say no to social vices such as human ritual killings, blood money, kidnapping and short-cut to wealth. Hardwork pays. Every cloud has a silver lining. May God almighty keep us and deliver us from evil.

Nonsense caption. Why eulogize thedevil of a man with this heading?

NwaAmaikpe:





If it was in Africa, I'd have claimed it was dug by my paternal greatest great great grand father for his mistress.
Because that man really did very foolish things for women.

But it seems everyday brings a clearer realization that the age of Jesus and the creation of the earth as detailed by the bible is just like another APC propaganda.

Is religion just a myth.
How old is the earth?
It will be a shame if we die and realize there is no afterlife and that we lived our lives in vain because of religion.

What if all we've ever thought we knew about a god is a lie.
What if there are no virgins waiting for us at the other side for killing infidels?
What if there is no city of Gold?
What if there is no judgement day?
What if we were lied to, to instil fear in us and make us conform?

What if?
What if?
We may never know, but just like the cowards say, it is better to err on the side of caution.

Great are your works oh Lord.

Nonsense at best

AngryIgboMan:
These keke people were a total and complete Nuisance. They constituted a whole lot of mess in Lagos.

Does Okada ride in Tokyo, Japan, Beijing, Berlin or New York?

Even, is Okada in Onitsha? Why would Okada be allowed in Ikeja the seat of government? I

For those saying crime rate will increase, thats unless Lagos state government is clueless and stuppid. Sanwo Olu is smart though as far as I know and a very hardworking governor. You can deny this if you want... But the heavy volume of work going on Lagos roads speaks for itself.

Obiano the drunkard banned Okada in Anambra. Did heavens fall? Rochas even went to the extent of banning keke in the entire state. Did crime rate increase? Was okada not banned in Nnewi even with the rate of billionaire Okada importers from that axis? Did anybody die?

What most of you don't know is that Nigeriens, Chadians, Sudanese, Malians and Somalians took over South West without anybody knowing! It was gradual, crude and definite.... But they were almost succeeding before I believe Sanwo Olu stepped in. At a time, I was asking myself if there is no regulatory body managing these people in Lagos anymore.

They virtually took over Lagos with there stuppid, crazy and mannerless style of driving. They felt like Lords of the city and if you try to caution them, they will bow there heads in foolishness to thank you. But in there hearts, they were calling you Mumu after scratching your car.

What is Keke doing in Victoria Island? Who even brought this useless contraption to Nigeria? India that manufactures these nonsense made moves to regulate them.

Google Indian roads and see how organized keke driving is. But in Lagos, its madness! They will keep on creating multiple lanes that cause traffic, scratching peoples car with no mercy, hitting pedestrians with reckless abandon while using there Okada and useless keke to rob at night!

I ask again, is Lagos no longer a city? Why is there no Okada in Tokyo, Japan, Beijing, Berlin, Stuttgart, Dubai, Osaka, Chicago or New York?

Sanwo Olu if you are reading this, its not much about making these laws. Its about enacting and enforcing these laws! Enforce the ban and see sanity return to Lagos!

Obiano the drunkard? Are you well at all? If a drunkard could be a governor and somebody like you can't, doesn't it show a drunkard is far better than you? You're far below drunkard.

What makes him not a conventional Nigerian politician, he lies more than the average politician

You're not making sense. Purge yourself of some bitterness and inferiority complex.

wofayouths:
Sir, Read, Re-read and Think before you respond sir. You just got it wrong sir.

Please read and re-read my comment too as I did the post. You had some good points but you ended up insulting the dead man and doing something very unethical.

Is the op sane? How can you be so callous? To make matters worse, you're advertising your trade over another person's misfortune? Is this how low we have sunk in morality and decorum? Nearly throwed up reading t
his garbage. If you don't know how to make your points in a decent way, keep your mouth shut or let another person help you. Spit!

midnighter:
Stop it! Stop trying to cover up just because hes the pope. There is enough hypocrisy in the church already.

This incident has been reported worldwide using the word SLAP because he clearly SLAPPED the womans hand. A tap is totally different from a slap.

He has already apologised and we have forgiven him. Call a spade a spade and stop trying to obfuscate issues just because you like the guy

Oga, call a spade a spade yourself. When we talk about slap in this part of the world we think about hitting somebody on the cheek with the palm of the hand, which was not the case. The headline is truly misleading and the whole incidents should be taken into account. When I heard slap, I was like pope done f**k up. However after reading the whole thing I just hissed. that was not a slap as we understand it here.

This woman that never knew she would get married. She just got married yesterday, got a kid or two, and people, including those that have been mothers from ages, will not hear word for her. You're forming oyibo when you are classless and from a third-world country

GOFRONT:


Small small, Our eye don begin Clear.....

All thanks to daddy Freezy

C'mon! Which Daddy fridge? Right from the word go I have never supported the so called prayers. Reason being that the prayers last long, more than necessary. Those who are in Onitsha and have common sense know better. Markets are markets. They are not churches.

For Daddy fridge followers, you guys deserve pity because the implication is you don't have the mental capacity to think for yourself, to think through things. Long before the so-called Daddy fridge started his sick campaigns against churches I had always frowned against the excruciating extortion by churches, especially the Pentecostals. What Daddy fridge is doing is just stupidity. You can't be a public breaker of the word of God and adversary of the church in the name of preaching against tithing and claim to be on the side of God. That is sick.

Finally don't drink sniper on Anambra matter, such ungodly union with u guys really Drew is back but today anambra adigo mma.


una done dey Ruga since naaaa, which other Ruga u dey talk about .

I don't think you and the fake Juliusmalema are Igbos. If yes, why leave the topic of discussion to go for each other jugular?

Kingspin:
China is the one holding back the trade war

Open your economy like the US
Stop stealing other inventions/biz secrets or idea by force

It's even surprising other nations are not treating China aa they are treating other companies that are not Chinese. And once other nation pay China in their own coin and get them to abide to free trade policy, Chinese economy will crumble.

NonsoWow:
Onitsha is okay. The only problem with Onitsha now is traffic congestion as more and more people flee into the city from failed cities like Aba that is buried in infrastructure decay and Enugu that doesn't have water.

.Nna swerve, you are not Igbo

Naturally champion has more stake no matter the result. A champion is doing you a favour for fighting you

Those saying wrestling is fake why not give it a trial since it's fake i.e. the hitting, the injuries and all

It's a matter of import and export

frbona:
what's your point?

Why should they investigate him just because of this. Can't people build good houses in peace?

SocialJustice:
Just wait until people start asking how he made his money or the human right infringement is taken up by a person like Sega.

How he made his money for this small house? Wonder how some people reason. An average Igbo man can deny himself comfort and enjoyment to build a house like this.

Cool and commendable

qualityGod:

Hard time,frustration ,hunger etc increase crime rate the act is barbaric but I think the management of laspotech should review the take home salaries of whom they are employed to guard lives and properties because hunger can lead to frustration, distraction and crime will follow suit.
But according to law crime is crime and this is a barbaric act.

What you wrote does not have bearing with what happened. And this is so unfortunate.

This country is wicked and frustrating

Please if you have any personal grouse with Union bank man up and handle it the right way. Not coming here to try to daint the image of an institution that is very important in Nigerian economy.

And daddy freeze who is afraid to judge Nigerian corrupt leaders lest they come for him or Muslims lest they come for him should not judge Nigerian Christians. Foolishly coward man

Nice one if this was actually what played out

go to YouTube. Search Facebook mark Zuckerberg trial. You'll see it all. Before you quote me next time do your research

I knew about the trial. It didn't have anything to do with collecting Intel. It's about advertizing for customers (Rusaians) which ultimately influenced the election.
