Tuesday, September 22, 2026 -A yet-to-be-identified woman has been k!lled and her body parts harvested and dumped in a river in Ahoada West Local Government Area by suspected spiritualist.
Residents of the community say the deceased was abducted
from Ahoada Minta in Ahoada East Local Government Area of Rivers State and
taken to Ogoda community in the neighbouring Ahoada West Local Government where
her remains were allegedly harvested and dumped into the river.
Confirming the incident to newsmen, the Traditional Ruler of
Ogoda Community, Chief Obutu Tom, said he first received information about the
incident while in Port Harcourt, saying he had to cut short his stay and
immediately reported the matter to the police.
He said it took days of coordination by the village
leadership, the police and the local government authority before the body was
eventually recovered.
“That was on
the 12th September, I was in Port Harcourt when I received the first phone call
informing me that some boys, about five in number, had grouped themselves
together, conspired, and abducted a girl from Ahoada Minta, Ahoada East, to
Ogoda community; after which, the girl was k!lled; her breasts were removed,
her private part was removed, and her heart was taken. They then went and
dropped her body in a stream very close to the village.
After I
entered the community and carried out my preliminary investigation. I said no.
I cannot allow such a thing to happen in my area. I had to do the needful; so I
went to the police and gave my report to them.
On the 19th
of September 2026, the security men, the Ahoada East Chairman, the Ahoada West
Chairman, and other prominent people moved to Ogoda community. Without minding
anything, we went into the swamp, and finally recovered the corpse floating on
the water.”
The Chairman of Ahoada West Local Government Area of Rivers
State, Eugene Epelle, also confirmed the incident and assured residents that
all those involved in the killing of the young lady would be brought to
justice.
