TABOO: CARVED WOOD BURIED INSTEAD OF A MAN'S CORPSE ON FRIDAY AT NNEWI,ANAMBRA STATE.{PHOTOS}.

    It was pure drama that took place last Friday during a burial ceremony in Nnewi, Anambra State, after it was discovered that a carved wood was to be buried instead of a man’s corpse. Local reports show that the deceased identified as Sunday Nwosu, died on the 10th of January, 2016, and his younger brother, Ikechukwu, had been telling people that Sunday’s corpse was in the mortuary and he didn’t have money to bury him, yet.

But, on Friday, 23rd of November, 2018, Ikechuchkwu invited few friends to a funeral service without the approval of his kinsmen. He brought a coffin containing the supposed corpse of Sunday and instructed that it shouldn’t be opened.

The sister discovered the piece of wood

However, their younger sister stormed the venue without notifying anyone and forcefully opened the casket. And to the surprise of everyone, only a carved wood was found inside.

But despite her cries, Ikechukwu still went ahead to bury the wood. Now, some villagers have called on the Igwe of Orizu, Nnewi, and the police to arrest Ikechukwu and make him provide his brother’s corpse.One more photo below.
