Mother’s devastating discovery
Sources revealed that Mrs. Ejezie, a lecturer and nurse, had left home to write an examination.
Upon returning, she noticed the front door was open—an unusual sight, as her children always kept it locked when alone, Radio Nigeria reported
After searching the house frantically, she and her neighbours made the horrifying discovery inside the deep freezer.
“The sight was unbearable. How could innocent children be killed in such a manner?” a devastated neighbor said.
Father speaks out
The children’s father, Mr. Udobi Ejezie, who resides in Irrua, Edo state, described the gruesome scene.
He stated that traces of unfinished meals suggested the attack happened around noon while the children were eating.
