Ritualists Pluck Out University Student Eyes The late Churchill Omoruyi
The family of Churchill Omoruyi, a 300-level student of the University of Benin, Edo State began the new year on a sad note when they received news of the death of their son, whose eyes were allegedly plucked out by ritualists. P.M.NEWS investigation revealed that Churchill, a student of Department of International Relations and Diplomacy, University of Benin, UNIBEN, left home on 30 December, 2010 to attend a vigil at Christ Foundation Church, off Ewah Road, Benin City, but he never returned home.
The following day, Churchill brother, Paul Omoruyi, his father, Pa Omoruyi and his father brother, Mr. John Igbinadolor were shocked when police informed them that the deceased had drowned in Ikpoba River, Benin City when he was being baptised. The family disputed the claim, saying that the late Churchill had been baptised before and he did not go to the church with a change of clothes in preparation for the baptism. The family, therefore, went with the police to search for the corpse of the late Churchill. But when it was found on 1 January, 2011, the family discovered the deceased eyes had been plucked out and his tongue removed. This gave rise to their suspicion that he might have been a victim of ritual killers. At the Esiegie Police Station, the Divisional Police Officer, DPO, Mrs. Carol Onyeka Afegbai, a Chief Superintendent of Police, CSP confirmed the story. She added that the late Churchill body has been sent to the hospital for autopsy and the result will determine the police next line of action. Mrs. Afegbai confirmed the arrest of Pastor Ojo because the deceased was said to have attended his church for the vigil before his death. The DPO directed further enquiries on the incident to the Edo State Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Peter Ogboi, but he could not be reached as at press time.

let the police do their investigations but arresting the pastor is rubbish because nobody knows if he actually went to the night vigil as he told his family members before the unfortunate incident and even if he went there is the possibilities that he might have meet the ritualist while coming back from the vigil because night vigil close very early in the morning sometimes the day might have not broken properly before the vigil closes and those that have an engagements to attend or will be going and schools early morning will leave without waiting till the day breaks properly.there is this possibilities too that he might have meet those evil men while going to the vigil at night.
