Tragedy struck Odigbo Local Government Area of Ondo State as a 26-year-old man, identified as Daniel, allegedly beheaded his 15-year-old brother, Emmanuel, for ritual purposes.

Both victims were sons of a senior police officer serving in the community. In swift retaliation, irate youths in the area reportedly lynched Daniel after discovering the gruesome act.

The horrific incident, which occurred on Monday evening, has plunged the agrarian community into shock and mourning.

According to a local resident, Roland Akinkunmi, the elder brother had lured Emmanuel to the banks of the Origbara River, a secluded area in the community, before carrying out the act.

“An indigene of the town who was trying to cross the river saw Daniel trying to conceal a human head in a black bag,” Akinkunmi recounted.

“I was at the palace when I heard people shouting from the direction of the Origbara River. When I arrived, I saw Daniel holding a severed head. At first, I didn’t realize it was his brother’s — I was in shock.”

Akinkunmi added that while the two siblings had reportedly argued earlier in the day, the motive behind the murder appears to go beyond a simple quarrel.

“Some neighbors mentioned that the brothers had a disagreement, but no one expected this.

“In this town, anyone who sheds blood for rituals or any reason is usually exposed. We are devastated.”

Residents say the family is not originally from the community but have lived there peacefully until now.

The incident has sparked fear and unrest among locals, many of whom are struggling to come to terms with the brutality of the crime.

Contacted, the state police command spokesperson Ayanlade Olayinka confirmed the ugly incident.

Ayanlade said that ” the Commissioner of Police, Adebowale Lawal, had ordered an immediate investigation.

These crop of youths don’t even want to work and pass through the stages of success. They are bent on getting rich at any cost.

But one thing I will always stress out is that, family values have really diminished. Just get rich by any means, most parents don’t care. I have even heard some parents take their yahoo children to spiritualists for fortification.
