Ritualists may have taken over Ogere, Ogun State, on
Lagos-Sagamu expressway as a female victim on her way to Lagos from Port
Harcourt was kidnapped and taken away at gun point for
slaughter.
Her fresh corpse was later found close to the point
where she was kidnapped two weeks later, with vital organs of her body,
including tongue, breasts and clitoris missing and Vanguard gathered that this
is the second of such incident occurring in the area in three
weeks.
The victim, Miss Tonia Ibelefa, 25, was travelling in
company of two male relations in a private car when the incident
occurred.
Eyewitness told Vanguard that the armed ritualists
blocked the expressway, dragged the University of Port Harcourt graduate out of
the car and took her into the bush, adding that the two male family members with
the girl surrendered her at gun point.
“She is the one we want and you must surrender her,”
the ritualists told the two men, according to the witness.
The witness said the matter was immediately reported to
the police in the area who launched a manhunt for the criminals to no
avail.
Messages were also said to have been sent to the girl’s
family in Port Harcourt who also reported the case to the police who immediately
declared a case of missing person.
Thinking that it was a case of kidnap, the family
waited to hear from the abductors but got no information about her
whereabout.
However, the ritualists last Thursday called the
parents through the number obtained from their victim’s phone, advising them to
pick up the corpse of their daughter at a junction very close to where the
incident happened.
Elder sister of the deceased confirmed that that family
had since recovered the corpse, which still looked very fresh at the time of
recovery, giving an indication that she was not killed immediately she was
kidnapped.
