According to the Sun, dumpsite has been discovered near Aba, Abia State, where over 20 human
skulls and decomposing bodies, including those of school children were found.
The site, which was a horror to behold was located, at about kilometre 15 on the
Aba/Azumini Highway at an area called "No man's land" after Akpaa village in
Obingwa Local Government of the state.
The discovery followed the arrest of four policemen attached to the Federal
Highway Patrol unit of the Nigeria Police, Aba Section, who allegedly killed a
26-year-old man in Aba.
The policemen led by their officer-in-charge, Hyginus Omeze, who were ordered
to be detained by the Area Commander for Aba, Rabiu Dayi were alleged to have
murdered one Onyekachi Chukwu, 26 and dumped his body at the site.
Daily Sun gathered that on Sunday June 23 Onyekachi, who
hailed from Ahaba Imenyi in Isuikwuato Local Government and lived at No. 47
Ukaegbu Road, went out with his friends to drink in a hotel located on Ekenna
Avenue. After spending the day, Onyekachi was said to have decided to pass the
night in the house of one of his friends residing also in Ogbor hill.
According to a source, as he made to knock at the gate, the policemen came
from nowhere and after beating him, got him arrested. The cops, who were said to
have refused all pleas by people residing in the neighbourhood, arrested
Onyekachi together with the gate man of the friend's house and the caretaker and
took them to a hotel on Opobo Road, Ogbor hill, which also served as their base.
On getting to the hotel, Daily Sun learnt the policemen left the other two
men behind in the hotel and took Onyekachi out in their Toyota Prado SUV and
drove towards Azumini. After about one hour, the policemen were said to have
come back to the hotel without the young man.
On getting back to the hotel, the policemen took the men they earlier left
behind and took them back to where they were earlier arrested and ordered the
occupants of the house to wash their vehicle and contribute money for them to
replace the bullets, which they claimed they had wasted and the people complied
without knowing what the policemen did.
The bubble, however, busted when the relations of Onyekachi, after days of
searching for him without success made formal complaint to the police, who swung
into action immediately and traced their colleagues, who allegedly committed the
dastardly acts to the hotel, where four of them were arrested.
According to Uchechi Chukwu, an elder brother to the deceased, who believed
the young man was killed for rituals, going by the way his body was dismembered;
it was through the effort of the area commander that the policemen were
arrested.
Then the arrested policemen, who were said to have admitted to the crime,
took their colleagues to the borrow-pit along the Aba/Azumini Highway, where
they dumped the dismembered body of Onyekachi. When Daily Sun visited the
borrow-pit at "no man's land," where Onyekachi's body was buried in a shallow
grave, the site was a horror to behold, as several human skulls and decomposing
bodies, including that of school children.
Also found in the place included a piece of iron zinc which surroundings were
splattered with blood and believed to been where Onyekachi was slaughtered and
his vital organs removed, according to his relations.
There was equally a human organ believed to be a bladder left on the ground,
where the slain man's body was found and also hand gloves believed to have been
worn by those who murdered the man. When contacted on phone, the Police Public
Relations Officer (PPRO), Abia Command, Geoffrey Ogbonna, while confirming the
incident, denied that the young man was killed for ritual purposes.
People are wicked! So wicked! God our lives is in your hand.
