Owerri: 9 bodies recovered from Nworie River

EMMA OGU, Owerri


Nine decomposing bodies have been recovered from the Nworie River in Owerri, Imo State, by tractors engaged in clearing the river preparatory to its dredging; a project being executed by Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) and Governor Ikedi Ohakim’s istration.

[b]The unidentified bodies said to be undergoing autospy are suspected to be victims of ritual killing.

Special adviser to the governor on Sanitation and Transport, Chief Willy Amadi, who disclosed this in an interactive session with journalists, said the bodies were not completely decomposed, even as he expressed the likelihood of more bodies being discovered.

Amadi who doubles as vice-chairman of Environmental Transformation Committee, ENTRACO, sad the company to carry out the dredging exercise will arrive in the state soon to begin the project awarded at the cost of N7billion.

He said: "What is going on now is not dredging. They are just clearing the weeds in the river. Who knows who the nine bodies are? If nine bodies can be discovered at this stage you can imagine what will be discovered when they dig deeper. People are being regularly declared missing. Who knows what has been going on for long in the River? "

He said the dredging exercise was purely a Federal Government project through the NDDC and the only counterpart contribution of the state government was payment of compensation to land owners and provision of security.

On the master plan and economic value of the project, he said three amusement parks will be built on the banks of the river alongside four modern bridges and houses. The dredging project, he said, will provide for water transport in all the local government areas the river crossed, saying it will have much economic impact on the state when the project is completed. [/b] Amadi said Ohakim deserved commendation and encouragement for attracting the project to the state.

The dredging project has attracted criticism in some quarters since it was announced. Some critics see it as a white elephant project while some question its economic value.

they are into alot of dubious business.

But what on earth made these people think that killing a human being can make them rich and powerful?or are they selling the organs for transplants to western and rich recipients?

Organs donations are in short supply in england and the rest of the real world.

Just how exactly does it work? You kidnap and murder an innocent person and hope that their body magically turns into Nairas? If it doesn't work you try again, and again, and again. At what point does it dawn on them that Juju is crap? That only idiots and fools fall for it. If people truly believe in Juju, charms, and trinkets well let me test their faith in these craps. I will go and buy a nice shotgun, load it up nice and pretty, and ask these fools to keep still while I prove the effectiveness of Juju to them. Oh sure if one dies does it mean Juju doesn't work?How can I know if I don't keep trying until there is no one left that believes in such foolishness in Nigeria.
