STRI1: There is outrage in Enugu State following the discovery, Monday evening, shocking images of dead bodies buried in shallow graves along the Enugu Port-Harcourt Express Road.
The incident, which occurred at the Ugwuaji Area of the State has kept residents in tears.
The corpses were buried inside the foundation of the building suspected to be a church under construction and totally covered with concrete.
It was gathered that construction of the building whose owner could not be immediately ascertained, commenced recently and was at the foundation level before the gory discovery Monday.
Unconfirmed sources said one of the workers at the site, who heard about the burial of the deceased inside the foundation before it was concretized, alerted security operatives about the evil act. Policemen were said to have after receiving the tip-off mobilized some labourers who dug the foundation open and discovered the corpses.
The discovery attracted several passersby and motorists plying the road to the scene.
They expressed shock at the discovery and called on security agents to do everything possible to fish out the perpetrators of the act, who they suspected could be ritualists.
Some residents of the neighbourhood alleged that the building believed to be a proposed place of worship, belonged to a ritualist who disguised to be a man of God.
The State Police spokesman, Mr Ebere Amaraizu, who confirmed the report said the corpses were recovered from the site following a tip-off.
“On information, three decomposing bodies were discovered and full scale investigations have commenced with a view to unmasking circumstances surrounding the incident,” he said.
Meanwhile, fear has gripped residents of Ugwuaji as security operatives were said to have swung into action to crackdown on the ritualist and his cohorts who killed and buried the deceased persons.
One of those who were at the scene described the act as “wicked and the most inhuman action I have seen in my entire life.”
“I was traveling when I saw the crowd there and had to stop. This is wickedness of the highest order. Accusing fingers are being pointed at a particular new church along that road; I don’t know who did this; but I must say that the wicked will never go unpunished.
“People no longer value human lives; for whatever purpose this was done, it is heart breaking”, he lamented.
Nyanmuri and Christianity. This is not the Christianity handed to you by colonia masters
Wujio: Yorubas have beem aggressively cjarging at igbos everywehre we go
I managed a church at Akah they deliverately gave yoruba muslims alone to handle signange and all they charge like its jihad with all blood running with rage
I have seen ticket people charge at igbo pkada riders all over lagos not giving the same treatement to yoruba bile riders. You think we are not taling note of all these in the society ?
Speaking at the Chinua Achebe Symposium at Princeton University, United States of America, Obi said it was necessary for Nigeria to have leaders with verifiable history and past.
To buttress his point, he challenged anyone to go to his alma mata at Cambridge, Oxford and Nsukka and ask for his records, that he won’t stop such requests with injunctions.
The above must have been a veiled dig at Tinubu who has been running from pillar to post to stop the release of his “first class” academic records by Chicago State University.
Hear how Obi said ”I assure you” towards the end of the video, and you would know that Tinubu might not escape what is coming.

Says a man who presented GCE results to INEC as the only credentials
We therefore call on P@ndora Obi and his delusional followers (obidients) to join hands with us in moving this nation forward. Election is over and a winner has emerged
Thank you.
God bless all lovers of democracy! God bless President Bola Ahmed Tinubu! God bless Nigeria!
I'm beginning to have hope in this country. The kind of questions people are asking here is what sanitizes a system and when you know people will ask questions instead of worshipping/praising you, the motivation to fraudulently acquire material things won't be there. When we say some climates are saner, this is part of what makes them saner. When it becomes institutionalized and people begin to get queried on anomalous deposits or credits in their bank accounts, cash at home, or property, the ongoing madness in civil service, security agencies, and among politicians will stop.
A delegation from Anambra is currently in Lagos (LAMATA) learning how to organize their cities. The same Anambra Obi ruled about 20 years ago. What did he do when he was governor in Anambra? What legacy did he leave behind? Someone should please tell me. LAMATA is Tinubu's legacy that Anambra has now come to learn from.
Supremos: Stop destroying businesses premises. That has been your modus oparandi.
In Orlu Imo state, you always burn shops and markets and loot the ones you can.
Why not face the boys and leave civilians out of your madness
I can only see beer parlors here. Are these the businesses you're talking about? No wonder they keep relocating to Lagos. When you harbor terrorists, you should also know the consequences of such.
The suspended CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele and other top officials of the bank may face trial afterall. This follows the stalling of the plea bargain move between the Federal Government and Emefiele.
Emefiele and the affected officials of the apex bank have “not made substantial concessions on some refunds expected from them.” Sources said that trillions of naira were being tracked by a federal agency but only a few billions of naira was offered as refundable by some of those linked to the suspicious transactions.
some interceding forces and Emefiele have not made progress on the plea bargain terms. The Presidency was shocked by the “massive scale of fraud and flagrant violations of the CBN Act,”
following interventions, the government’s investigation, initially coordinated by a security agency, had recommended plea bargain option with Emefiele, who wanted it.
Despite Emefiele’s offer to step aside in August, the other aspects of plea bargain process were “not substantially met.” A source said: “Where trillions were being queried, some of those affected have offered to refund about N32 billion only. “The engagement of the Special Investigator has also uncovered more mismanagement of resources and questionable expenditures in CBN than what some security agencies dug up.
“The findings of the Special Investigator have uncovered a massive rot.”
Wutinky: You are a big foool, we are ain't interested in ass licking the Northern Nigeria, now go fuckkk yourself with your stuppid hard work, thunder tear your anus there
Igbos are not ready for the hard work. They just want to be president using ethnicity, religion, and primitive emotions. I really pity them . They may never rule this country with the look of things.
The petitions were high on emotions, conjectures, moral posturing, grandstanding, logical absurdities (such as insisting that candidates must win 25 percent of the FCT to win a presidential election thereby making Abuja more important than every part of Nigeria, that Tinubu should be disqualified for a voluntary civil forfeiture of drug money in the US more than three decades ago, that Tinubu should be disqualified because of false and ignorant claims that he didn't graduate from Chicago State University, or for perjuries he committed more than 20 years ago, etc.) than on legally sound, substantive arguments about the election itself.
They didn't present foolproof, unimpeachable evidentiary facts, like Atiku did in 2019, to show that their actual votes were higher than INEC gave them—and thereby higher than Tinubu’s actual votes. Wishful thinking, online bullying, tendentious accounts of events, and coarse, primitive, illiterate invective against people who have different opinions are not substitutes for substance. Neither are mass delusion and blind political cultism guarantees of electoral victory.
The evidence for electoral irregularities they presented to the tribunal were, for the most part, inept, tangential, weak, and easily disputable. Plus, they are also guilty of these irregularities in their own areas of popularity. It isn't enough to allege; you should prove your allegations beyond all shadows of doubt, beyond merely providing libidinal raw materials for the wet dreams of your worshipful supporters.
Why is everybody whipping Obi like this? I really pity the man and his poor supporters. Someone would read this and still expect the SC judges to declare pandoraa Obi as the winner. Anyway, Gbejues (like prof called them) are only trying to hoodwink Nigerians and the judiciary. Obi and his co-Gbajues know what they are doing... more than 90% of their illiterate supporters also know.
I still couldn't believe the video of Obj, commanding the Yorubas Obas in a disrespectful manner, was a real-life scene. It was jaw-dropping and looked more like a Nollywood movie scene. The way he shouted at them was an assault on the kings and the people of that area.
epondudu: Even Professor Wole Soyinka cannot be trusted, what happened to those horrible utterances about Asiwaju during the election why the sudden change?
Omoboricash: Why did he invest publid funds in family business if he is not gbaju e. Why did he keep state funds in bank he was shareholder if he is not gbaju e. Obi is a scammer, packaged fraudster
