Man escapes mob anger after beheading father, burying severed head

A young man identified as Ogeoma Ogbonna has beheaded his father, Azubuike Ogbonna, in their family compound in Umuomei community, Obingwa council area of Abia state. The horrific act has left the community in a state of utter shock and bewilderment.

According to eyewitnesses, Ogeoma, a palm cutter, had been exhibiting signs of mental illness and had been threatening to harm people in the community. In a chilling prelude to the murder, Ogeoma had allegedly threatened to kill his father just hours before carrying out the heinous act.

After beheading his father, Ogeoma buried the severed head in a shallow grave in the compound, leaving the body lying in a pool of blood. It was not until neighbors were alerted to the incident that the full extent of the horror became apparent.

“We are still in shock over what happened,” said a community member, who wished to remain anonymous. “Ogeoma had been showing signs of mental illness, but nobody thought he was capable of something like this. He had threatened to harm people before, but we never thought he would actually go through with it.”

As news of the incident spread, sympathizers thronged the compound, expressing their shock and outrage over the senseless killing. The community is still reeling from the incident, with many left wondering what could have driven Ogeoma to commit such a horrific act.

At the time of filing this report, the Police Public Relations Officer, Abia State Command, ASP Maureen Chinaka, had not responded to calls and a text message seeking confirmation of the incident and details of the investigation.
