Emmanuel Effiong, a 20-year-old man, has said he beheaded a woman at the Aba park on the instructions of a mad woman, who allegedly advised him to throw a human head into a river or he would go mad, Punchng reports.
He said: “I gave a mad woman money one day in Aba and she told me to look for a skull or human head and throw inside a river or I will go mad. One morning, when I saw a lifeless body in front of the park, I decided to cut off the dead woman’s head for the exercise. .

I threw the head into the Aba River to remain a normal person.” He made the confession while in the custody of the police. He had been arrested by police operatives in Aba, Abia State in connection with a threat to kidnap and kill one Ikechukwu Udogu.
