A houseboy named Chigozie Dike is reported to have severed the manhood of his employer’s elderly father in what is suspected to be an attempt at money ritual. This disturbing incident unfolded in Amaenyi, Awka, the capital of Anambra State.

A source shared a video recording, revealing the grief-stricken family members as they grapple with the horrifying events surrounding the untimely demise of their patriarch.
A write up which accompanied the video read: “This boy by name Chigozie Dike is a houseboy, of 20yrs old. He came barely a month ago to stay and take care of his madam’s father at Amaenyi, Awka, Anambra state.
