A source, who pleaded not to be named , told Southern City News that the elders , after saving the two ‘ lovers ’, asked the man to bring six cartons of beer and some cash , which would be used to appease the gods of the land .
The source said, “ This abominable act took place during a burial ceremony of a lady at Umuduru Village, Ihiala .
“ It was gathered from an eyewitness that a woman believed to be a commercial sex worker living in one of the brothels in this community , apparently under an influence , said she wanted to perform ` a show ’.
“ As part of the show , she stripped and dragged a young man simply known as `Chinwuba ’ from Ogboro Umunwaji Village in Ihiala out of the crowd . Both engaged in a sex orgy right in front of onlookers with impunity .
“ Some angry youths pounced on them and in the process, the lady escaped . But Chinwuba was not that lucky. It took the intervention of the elders who restrained the irate youths from sending the man to his early grave .
“ The elders fined him six cartons of beer and an undisclosed amount of money . They ( elders ) said the fine was to appease the gods of the land for the abominable act,” the source stated .
