Alleged Witchcraft: Mob Strips 2 Women Naked In Delta

Angry mob in Irri Isoko south local area of Delta State yesterday allegedly striped two women (names withheld) naked for suspected witchcraft activities.
The women were being accused of sorcery after a middle- aged man, Joseph Akpore, took ill and allegedly died shouting witchcraft attacks.
It was reliably gathered that in a footage, the women were threatened with machetes including other dangerous weapons by the angry mob numbering over two thousand youths.
Investigation revealed that there have been alleged witchcraft crises and other related acts rocking the community; an allegation dispelled as untrue by one of the leaders of the youths, Tobore Ejiro saying, “We don’t know who are the witches in this community, but when it is established, we will take action against the persons and possibly banish them from the community.” But the police public relations officer in the state, Mrs Celestina Kalu, confirmed that some of the youths who took laws into their hands were invited for interrogation by the police, saying normalcy has returned to the community.
