Residents of Atele Street in the Anibaba community, Ikorodu, Lagos on Tuesday woke up to find two nude women lifeless, who were dumped by the roadside.
The women, whose identities had yet to be known, also had their breasts cut off, while their private parts were also removed. Hmmm…what a mess!
According to Punch, the shocked residents tried in vain to locate the families of the deceased women. Some of the residents said the incident was the second time in two weeks that mutilated bodies of women would be found in the area.
It was earlier reported that six women were found dead in a canal in the area on Saturday, December 5.
It had been reported that the decomposing corpses were thereafter removed by officials of the Lagos State Environmental Health Monitoring Unit, and deposited in a morgue in Yaba.
Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Joe Offor, had told Punch that the relatives of the women had yet to show up, adding that the police were investigating the cause of the women’s death.
On Tuesday again two women were found by the roadside, stripped and mutilated. What is going on?
The PRO of Lagos Ministry of Heath, Mrs. Adeola Salako, confirmed the incident. “You are right about the two new corpses,” she said in a text message.
