The military has taken over
Yenagoa, Bayelsa state capital following the killing of an 18-year-old girl by
suspected ritualist. The victim, simply identified as Faith and a native of
Epie speaking area of the state, was reported to have been lured to an hotel
along the Biogbolo area of the state capital for a sexual rendezvous with an
unidentified man.
It was gathered that later in
the night the suspected ritualist, who had lodged in the hotel and requested
for female company, cut off the girl's left br*st and left her in her pool of
blood.
Some staff of the hotel
claimed the suspect was an Igbo man identified and was lodged without proper
documentation and identification as required by law.
Another version claimed the
girl was allegedly lured to the room of the unknown guest by the hotel owner
with N500.
The hotel owner and two other
suspects have been arrested by the police. The incident, which occurred on
Friday at about 10pm, reportedly led to serious squabble between some residents
around the area.
