A wealthy Nigerian man, Andrew Amechi, who was arrested for allegedly kidnapping and using two young women for ritual purposes, has mysteriously died while in police custody. Amechi was being transported from Abia to Abuja when he died, sources said.
The two young women, whom Amechi met on Facebook and lured to his 6-bedroom mansion in Aba, are still missing, and their whereabouts remain unknown. It is feared that they may never be found, as Amechi was the only person who knew what happened to them.
Sources close to the investigation have accused Amechi of being either a ritualist or an organ harvester, and his death has raised more questions than answers. The police are yet to release a statement on the circumstances surrounding Amechi’s death.
The incident has sparked outrage and concern among Nigerians, who are demanding justice for the two missing women and calling for a thorough investigation into Amechi’s activities.
Ochekwo, believed to be involved in an organ harvesting syndicate, was shot dead by vigilantes while being transported to Abuja from Abia State.
Activist Harrison Gwamnishu confirmed the development, stating that Ochekwo attempted to escape during the transport. “He was killed while trying to escape with his car. The whereabouts of Celine and Afiba are still unknown,” Gwamnishu reported. The activist also shared a video of another victim who managed to escape from Ochekwo’s house after being held hostage for six days.
The case came to public attention on May 22 when Gwamnishu raised the alarm on social media. He reported that the two friends had left Port Harcourt, Rivers State, to meet a man they had connected with on Facebook in Aba, Abia State. Following their disappearance, Ochekwo was arrested but refused to disclose the locations of Celine and Afiba.
Further investigation revealed Ochekwo’s involvement in a larger organ harvesting syndicate. The police, along with vigilant efforts from the community, were working to uncover more details about the network and locate the missing women.
Despite Ochekwo’s death, the search for Celine Ndudim and Afiba Tandoh continues, with authorities urging anyone with information to come forward
