| Nigerian Police Arrest 30 in Cult Killings |
| 2004-08-05 |
| EFL Police in eastern Nigeria discovered skulls and corpses of more than 50 people in shrines where a secretive cult was believed to have carried out traditional ritual killings, a police spokesman said Thursday. Two religious leaders and 28 others were arrested in connection with the Wednesday discovery of bleached skulls, fresh corpses and others partly mummified at 20 shrines in forests near the town of Okija, police spokesman Kolapo Shofoluwe told Associated Press. The group is believed to practice a ritual in which parties to a personal dispute — often over business deals — are made to drink a potion that they are told will kill only the guilty party. |

| #2 you to? ima get this other day: Dear friend, You may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you do not know me personally. I am Marriam Zion, the daughter of CHIEF Mugge Zion one of the most popular black farmer in Zimbabwe who was recently murdered in the land dispute in my country. I got your contact through network online hence decided to write you.Before the death of my father,he had taken me to Cotonou BENIN to deposit the sum of USD$10.500 Million(ten million five hundred thousand ,united states dollars),in one of the security company in cotonu, as he foresaw the looming danger in Zimbabwe this money was deposited in a box as African Artifacts to avoid much dumorrage from security company.This amount was meant for the purchase of new machines and chemicals for the Farms and establishment of new farms in swaziland and Cotonou BENIN. This land problem came when Zimbabwean President Mr.Robert Mugabe introduced a new Land Act Reform wholly affecting the rich white farmers and some few black farmers,and this resulted to the killing and mob there in lot more but itn way to long. |
