Black coffins and ritual items deposited at residence of ex-Bursar of UNIBEN
This mystery is yet to be unraveled as former Bursar of the University of Benin, Dr May Nwoye has demanded for police protection following the discovery of more coffins and some sacrificial items in front of her official residence.
Last Thursday night, two black coffins draped with three red strip clothing and two earthen wares containing slain chickens were placed in front of her residence. Another coffin including an earthen ware containing sacrificial items such as dead rabbits, a human-like carved image, three eggs and other items were also deposited in front of her residence.
The presence of the coffins and sacrificial items caused panic among other senior staffers of the university. Nwoye said she was surprised to see the coffins and sacrificial items when she woke up. She said neighbours called about 12 midnight to inform her that some persons were offloading some things at the gate leading to her residence. Nwoye said she contacted the police who took her statement before removing the coffins and the sacrificial items.
The former Bursar, who appealed for police protection, said those after her life and that of her family were bent on forcing her out of the institution. She said she had been receiving anonymous calls from different persons threatening to deal with her if she pursues her reappointment as Bursar of the university.
Meanwhile, the mother of the Vice Chancellor of the university, Madam Ifueko Lucy Oshodin is dead. A statement signed by Osarenren said she died at the age of 94 and is survived by UNIBEN VC, Prof Osayuki Oshodin and two daughters.
