Late Vincent Ike(Omoiko)...what really happened?
There is an outrage that has refused to cool down in Ejigbo as you are reading this paper.
It is the alleged confessions of a popular restaurant and bar operator whose name was simply given as Ifeoma who allegedly confessed to killing a popular politician by poisoning his nkwobi, a popular delicacy made of cow hoofs and skin enjoyed by most people from south east of Nigeria
Those who know say Ifeoma had started behaving strangely since the death of popular Ejigbo politician Imo state born Late Vincent Ike better known to many as Omoiko who suddenly developed a mysterious health condition which later took his life.
Close sources who knew of the extra marital love affair between Ifeoma and Omoiko said Ifeoma married with four children started complaining to her friends of seeing apparitions of Omoiko every now and then few weeks after the late politician was buried, a fact that was attributed to their closeness when he was alive. It was when she started complaining to her friends that the apparition has started chasing her around with a machete that it became apparent that there was more to the show than met the eye.
Further investigation exposed that her problems became worse one day when she collapsed in her house and was rushed to a famous hospital in Ejigbo where she never improved even with the many pastors and men and women of God who came to pray for her. These pastors all went away with the conclusions that she must confess her sins or die.
According to the gist, she was later discharged from the hospital when she was showing no signs of recovery.
That was when her family members decided to take her home to Ogwashi Ukwu as she was told her condition defied orthodox medicine. Ogwashi became rendevous for mother of all confessions before she collapsed and died throwing the entire neighbourhood abuzz.
Those who were at Ogwashi Ukwu during the yuletide returned to Lagos with the sad and unfortunate gist which seemed to have enveloped the ancient Delta state community and smeared Ejigbo. While some people allege that she mentioned the people that bought her over with N2m to kill Omoiko others say the story is mere fabrication and just a figment of some people’s conjecture
Inside sources say Ifeoma’s problems started sometime late last year 2016 when she started being sickly and emaciated enough as to raise an eyebrow. Her very popular bar and restaurant shrinking with low patronage.
Before this period which also coincided with Omoiko;s death, Ifeoma’s friends recall how she had announced a boom in her fortunes as she talked freely about having bought a piece of landed property warming up to buy a car
Those who know say one day she had a convulsion which left her unconscious/
Said a close neighbour “On that day she had a fit of convulsion, Ifeoma was pleading with Omoiko to forgive her and crying endlessly. She could not explain what was happening to her”
