The Shrine Of Man Who Used His Mother For Ritual In Imo State Destroyed By Police

The shrine of controversial Chief Chimezie Bede
Osigwe, the man who allegedly killed his mother,
embalmed her body and kept the skeleton for
about 10 years in his cupboard, has been
destroyed by a combined team of Nigeria Police
and Imo Security Network.
Vanguard investigations revealed that the
demolition commenced, yesterday morning, at
Ejemekwuru, Oguta Local Government Area of Imo
State, as soon as the security men arrived the
rural community.
The presence of security personnel and a heavy
duty pay-loader in the community elicited fresh
anxiety among the people, even as they expressed
delight at the destruction of the crime scene that
brought collateral shame to the area.
Although it was not clear at press time, who gave
the order for the demolition of Osigwe’s house,
Vanguard gathered that the action might not be
unconnected with the state administration’s
stand on pulling down buildings that house
criminals.
Some of the indigenes of the area commended
the security men for “taking timely and decisive
action on the house of crime.”
What baffled the people most was that Osigwe
never told anybody what truly happened to his
mother or gave the late woman a decent burial
until her lifeless body was recovered.
It would be recalled that the police recently
arrested Osigwe for allegedly killing his mother
and keeping same for 10 years in his cupboard.
