According to Daily Independent, the 39-year-old woman
was alleged to have committed the heinous act inside her husband’s
shop. Mr. Azubuike Emedom returned from a business trip to find his wife
and child missing.
"It was gathered that after searching for them in the neighbourhood
without result, Mr. Emedom proceeded to his shop, although he thought it
abnormal for them to be in the shop that early. When he got to the shop, he discovered that the shop was
locked from the inside, but after repeated knocks and Ifeoma’s failure
to open the door, Mr. Emedom was said to have broken down the door, only
to find his wife inside, blood on her mouth and the baby wrapped in
blood stained cloth. Mr. Emedom
uncovered the baby, he discovered that she had died, even as her eye
balls were plugged out and blood gushing from the sockets. The baby’s
hands and legs were also broken."
A community leader who spoke under anonymity claims that Ifeoma is of a ‘marine spirit.’"
"I believe she used this child for sacrifices, she sucked the blood of
the child because by the time we caught her, her mouth was full of
blood. She killed the baby intentionally. She always renders sacrifice
to their gods in the river. Some months ago, she attempted to kill a
woman from our community. She injured the woman with a knife," he said.
The suspect has been arrested and detained at the Ihitte/Uboma Police station.
Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Andrew Enwerem, the Police
Public Relation Officer of the Imo Police Command who confirmed the story said investigations were on going.
