A 200-level student of the University of Port Harcourt,
Ifeanyi Dike, was last week, arrested for allegedly abducting and
killing an 8-year-old girl, Victory Chikamso, for ritual purposes. .
Speaking
with newsmen at the State Police Command on Saturday, the father of the
slain girl, Ernest Nmezuwuba, said he was filled with grief after
seeing the mutilated body of his daughter. He expressed shock that Dike
could contemplate killing his daughter. .
“I
am from Ochiogwa, Imo State. The man who killed my daughter is like my
brother, someone very close to me, I can call him my cousin. He resides
at Eliozu. When I returned home on Friday, and learnt that my daughter
was missing, I immediately began a search. .
After
the search became fruitless, I decided to report the matter to the
police. This Ifeanyi (suspect) we are talking about is a habitual
criminal. He committed a crime in a bank and the Special Anti-Robbery
Squad caught him. .
Then the in-law
went and bailed him. So, around 1.30am, the security men ran to me and
said that they had seen my daughter and that I should come and see the
man that kidnapped my daughter. .
I
was in my shorts and I rushed to the place with the security agents. I
was told that the person that killed my daughter was caught while
carrying a load around 1.10am. The load was in a sack. .
The
policemen said when they confronted him, he said he wanted to take it
to the dustbin. When I got there, I asked: where is my daughter? They
showed me a sack. .
As I opened it, I
saw my daughter; I peeped and watched very well, the two eyes were off,
the tongue was gone, one of the breasts was off, one of the fingers, the
smaller one, was off. I watched at the centre here, he had carved it
(vagina) out.
This
boy decided to use my child for ritual. As I turned back and saw him, he
(Dike) was looking at the ground. Immediately I saw him, I shouted,
Ifeanyi, you killed by daughter. But he said it was not only him.”
