“I watched my dad butcher mum in pieces with cutlass” –11-year-old in Enugu state reveals


Residents of Agbani community in Enugu State are yet to know the circumstances that pushed a middle aged man to brutally cut his wife in pieces before their 11-year-old son.  Little Onyebuchi Eze, who witnessed how his mother was gruesomely murdered by his father, later disclosed the bizarre incident to the villagers.
Sunday Eze Jnr. killed his wife, Anthonia, on Tuesday night, leaving residents of Agbani Village on the outskirts of Nsukka Urban in Enugu State bewildered.
It was gathered that the killer husband had hid in the jungle between his village and Obimo community in Nsukka Local Government Area after the dastardly act.
Onyebuchi, the only child of his parents, was traced to his uncle’s house, Alex, where he took refuge after witnessing the murder of his mother during a disagreement over what the boy described as a flimsy issue.
He recounted the incident, speaking in low tone, apparently traumatized: “My father has been exhibiting some strange behaviours, which made him to regret actions he took on some matters in the end.
“My father has a mental problem and exhibits it at all times. He regrets certain actions he takes, when it is too late.
“On the fateful night, he had a quarrel with my mother over a small issue and my father reached out for his machete and started dealing cuts on my mother. I tried to stop him, but could not. So, he cut mummy all over her body, head, leg, hand and everywhere.
“I was very afraid but daddy took me along after he finished and we hid in the farmland near our house.
“After some time in the bush, he told me to run to his senior brother’s house and tell him what happened.
“I obeyed and that is why I am here.
“I am 11 years old and a pupil of Model Primary School, Nsukka Urban and in primary five.”
Onyebuchi said his father attempted to commit suicide while they were hiding in the farmland, using a spanner to slash his throat.
A search party initiated by a community leader, Chief Ejike Onah alias Papa Nsukka, fished out the killer husband, after an intensive manhunt that lasted for over 30 hours.
The suspect, Eze, claimed that his wife was responsible for his mental problem and that she died during a scuffle on the fateful night.
“I was told by a diviner that my wife had a hand in my mental problem, which causes me internal heat at intervals,” he said.
Meanwhile, Eze has been handed over to the police. He is being held at the Nsukka Police Station.
Only two months ago, a former commissioner of the state electoral body, Enugu State Independent Electoral Commission (ENSIEC), Chief Nweze, shot his wife dead in their marital home at Enugu-Ezike in Igboeze North Local Government Area.

Snoop Lion Excommunicated From The Rastafari Community

Snoop Lion excommunicated from the Rastafari Community, according to Bunny Wailer! Bunny has always had his doubts about  Snoop Lion ‘s intent and now his skepticism has taken an even stronger stance, that of excommunication. The news was broken via his  Facebook  profile and via  press release . Recently Snoop Lion has struggled to convince the Rastafari and Reggae community that he is sincere about his profession of, and transition to the faith, principles and beliefs of Rastafari. Most doubtful is Bunny Wailer the only living member of the original Wailer. ‘ Excommunication is a religious censure used to deprive, suspend, or limit membership in a religious community or to restrict certain rights within it. Some groups use the term disfellowship instead, ‘ stated Bunny’s official release. With that said, this would surely deprive Snoop Lion from direct contact to some elders within the Rastafarian community also, access to vital information and place of worship. Let us see
