There was chaos at Iguodala Primary School in the

with blood sprinkled on it was found in one of the classrooms
on Monday May 4th.
According to Punch, the Head teacher of the school, Mrs
Georginia Ilongwo said the students and their teacher
returned to their classroom after the morning assembly when
they found the grave and immediately raised an alarm.
"After the pupils and teachers raised the alarm, people
around trooped into the school premises.
I informed the Odionwere community leaders, the Ministry of
Education, the Nigeria Union of Teachers and the Parent-
Teacher Association. All of them advised that we call the
police.
When policemen came, they said they would assess the scene
today (Tuesday).
We were all surprised because since I started teaching here, I
have never experienced such a thing"she said
Police officers from the Esigie Police Division who have been
keeping watch of the school since the incident happened said
health workers from the state Ministry of Health had come to
inspect the place and advised the cemetery workers who were
digging the grave open to stop since they had already dug 3
feet into the ground and even reached the hard part of the
earth and found nothing suspicious.
Mr. Sylvester Usoboh, a Deputy Director in the Health and
Environment Department of the council, while commenting
on the incident said
"We have removed the earth that was dug and got to the
stronger part, an indication that no further digging was done,
and nothing was found. Maybe the police may investigate
further; but we did not find anything."
Also commenting, the Divisional Police Officer, CSP Akeke
Eni, said they had also dug the grave and found nothing. He
said no corpse was found in the grave.
"It is an empty 'grave. It was initially suspected to contain
something, but we have discovered that there is nothing
inside."
