The mortuary, located in an isolated, bush-surrounded area, contained bodies in an advanced state of decomposition. Many of them were mutilated.
The Commissioner of Police Aboki Danjuma, who visited the scene yesterday, expressed shock at the conditions of the bodies.
“We received an intelligence report that this place was used for organ harvesting,” he said, appealing to the public to come forward if they have relatives among the bodies. “We will arrest the suspect; we have already declared him wanted.”
Danjuma added that the state government plans a mass burial for the bodies, citing health hazards, and may demolish the building after obtaining legal clearance.
“We may soon organise a mass burial because it is constituting a health hazard to the entire village,” he said.
Imo State Health Commissioner Dr. Chioma Egu, who inspected the facility on the governor’s directive, confirmed it was unregistered. “We found hundreds of dead bodies, decomposed and not taken care of. There is nothing to show this place is a mortuary,” she said, declaring the site a public health concern.

Ahhhhhhhh
Hello iya Boys
My dear, it's heartbreaking. For money we'll still leave behind.
DeleteHow is the government taking care of the security personnel who must go in and witness and deal with these things? This is a very traumatizing experience and they must ensure that these employees who have to deal with this kind of work get the necessary mental health care and mandatory paid vacation and wellness days each year, ensure their income matches the nature of the work. I don’t envy them, may God give them the strength to do their work. This is a horrific situation.
ReplyDeleteThis is why the older I get the less friendly I am. Who to trust? May their souls be reunited with their creator and they may find healing from their horrible earthly experience.
You are very correct, this can mess with one's mental health. When I saw it, I just told myself it is Ai and I moved on. I refused to be disturbed mentally.
DeleteWhy are Ibo’s doing this to themselves?
ReplyDeleteI wonder 🤔. Just some of the bad eggs ruining the name of the whole tribe
DeleteMaybe when you learn how to construct a simple question correctly, THE IGBOS will respond to this your baseless question?
DeleteHahahaha, 13.11 and ace, the two of you (or one person) are not serious. Ode ni gbogbo yin!
DeleteMore than hundred bodies, na wah ohh.
ReplyDeleteOrgan harvesting
ReplyDeleteSome Igbo people and useless lifestyle. And their family members would be looking for them not knowing they are dead. What is the gain in all this?
ReplyDeleteI hope the culprits are caught and punishment meted out accordingly
So painful looking for a missing loved one. There is nothing as painful as missing a loved one. It's better when they are dead and buried than when they're missing without being found. The thought of their whereabouts is killing ah. God help us
DeleteGod have mercy 🥺
ReplyDeleteAnd you will see the people from these same areas living in denial and trying to blame fictitious Herdsmen and Fulani instead of acknowledging that it is their own people that are responsible.
ReplyDeleteThe day you are honest to yourself about a problem is the day you are halfway to solving it
Fulanis are killing too, don't exonerate them.
DeleteIgbos are never beating the allegations
ReplyDeleteThis is horrible. The killings and shedding of innocent blood is too much. I'm just tired.
ReplyDeleteThings are happening!!!
ReplyDeletePeople are wicked!!!!
This is horrible
ReplyDeleteThese people are HEARTLESS
Hundreds of bodies?!!!!
ReplyDeleteGod abeg...
ReplyDeleteOh my God! 😱😱
ReplyDeleteAll those jobless idiots shouting Igbos, you'll be fine. Ace, you should be ashamed of your poor self.
ReplyDeleteEvil, immoral devilish act, wicked, disheartening, failed govt, failed parental guidelines, unplanned babies, negligence, faulted backgrounds, etc add yours.
