Ebonyi man caught with human parts in Awka

A 19-year-old man, Sunday Owo, was, yesterday, apprehended with fresh human parts at a healing home in Awka, Anambra  State.

According to Vanguard, Owo was caught with the genitals, fingers and blood-filled bottle of a child suspected to have been killed by him.

The suspect, who was apprehended at the instance of the customer of the healing home, Mrs Ifeanyichukwu Ilonzo, told newsmen that he hailed from Ohaukwu in Ebonyi.

He said he was asked by one Blessing to get the human parts and bring them to a natural healing home in Awka for money ritual. He said that he paid Blessing N50,000 for connecting him to the healing home.

Owo confessed that the victim whose parts he had was about four years old and that he killed him in a stream in his town and threw the head and other parts into the stream.

His words: “She brought me here two days ago and said that madam instructed her to tell me to bring these body parts that I will have money.

“Her name is Blessing; she is also from Ebonyi State, but she said we can’t get these parts here, so we went back to Ebonyi State where I got them and brought it here. I don’t know where blessing is now. I paid her N50,000 for linking me up.”

But Ilonzo, owner of Centre for Psychic Healing and Administration, CEPHA, Awka, said that she invited the media and the police on seeing such strange thing.

“I and my staff were on ward-round after morning prayers when we saw the man with the human parts. He said he was looking for me as he had brought the items.

“When the content of the black bag was opened, l instructed my staff not to let him go and invited security agencies and the media to witness what we saw. One Blessing Eze had come for healing of fibroid and l gave her prescription after which she left but had not returned.

“Eze’s consultation card bears Ifite-Awka as her address. This is some of the suspected frame-ups by people who wish to undo me. I had witnessed such attempts in the past, including failed efforts to take my life,’’ she said.

Ilonzo urged the Police to identify the owners of the child that was murdered and the Blessing working as his accomplice, saying that human life was sacred.

The Police at the scene arrested the man, and the Police Public Relations Officer of Anambra command, SP Mohammed Haruna, said investigation had commenced.

This was disclosed by the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, Sadiya Umar Farouq, in a statement made available to  Paulokahblog   in Abuja Tuesday. In the statement signed by the Deputy Director Information, Rhoda Ishaku Iliya, the minister said all approvals have been made and processes for payment triggered.

Stop inflicting economic hardship on Ebonyians with tax demands, ex-SSG implores Umahi

Former Secretary to the State Government of Ebonyi State, Professor Benard Odoh, has implored the Ebonyi State Governor, Engr. David Nweze Umahi, to desist from inflicting economic hardship on Ebonyians. In an open letter he made available to Paulokahblog Friday morning, Odoh said that, "as a way of cushioning the devastating effects of the covid-19 pandemic on Ebonyi’s struggling economy, there is urgent need to jettison the collection of tenement rates/ground rents from landlords, excessive/forceful drive for quarry haulage levies and waiving of personal income taxes".  Odoh regretted that, despite the efforts of the state government in policing its borders against the COVID-19 pandemic, Ebonyi State, as of May 21, has recorded 13 cases and expressed hope that the situation would not get worse in the state in particular and Nigeria in general, even as he pledged support for the state government in ensuring that the active cases are managed successfully "to t...

Don't quit by Edgar Albert Guest

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, when the road you're trudging seems all uphill, when the funds are low and the debts are high, and you want to smile but you have to sigh, when care is pressing you down a bit - rest if you must, but don't you quit. Life is queer with its twists and turns. As everyone of us sometimes learns. And many a fellow turns about when he might have won had he stuck it out. Don't give up though the pace seems slow - you may succeed with another blow. Often the goal is nearer than it seems to a faint and faltering man; Often the struggler has given up when he might have captured the victor's cup; and he learned too late when the night came down, how close he was to the golden crown. Success is failure turned inside out - the silver tint of the clouds of doubt, and when you never can tell how close you are, it may be near when it seems afar; so stick to the fight when you're hardest hit - it's when things seem...
