Mother paraded by village elders after allegedly confessing to killing her sons for challenging her over their father’s properties
A woman was paraded by village elders after she allegedly confessed to killing her sons in Ezeagu, Enugu State.
Videos shared online show elders of the village questioning the woman after her second son, named Emmanuel Chidera, died at the age of 22.
She allegedly confessed to killing Emmanuel and his brother.
A social media user who claims to know one of the woman’s dead sons alleged that the man told them at their last village meeting that his mother should be held if anything happens to him.
