Rigor Mortis ( News Review)

-
THE EDO STATE POLICE HAD IN OCTOBER 2018 ARRESTED AND PARADED A NINETEEN YEARS OLD BOY FOR ALLEGEDLY STRANGLING HIS MOTHER TO DEATH IN HER SLEEP AT AROUND 5AM, IN THE ROOM THEY BOTH SHARE IN OLOGBO AREA, NEAR BENIN IN EDO STATE.

The young alleged criminal had confessed to the Police Investigators that he'd done it for ritual purpose. He also divulged that he had been consulting a spiritualist who had instructed him to kill his mother and then have constant sexual intercourse with her corpse in spite of rigor mortis for him to attain the riches he wished for.
The suspect had pandered to the instructions of the spiritualist until luck ran out on him, when his suspicious grandmother found out and raised the alarm.
He was apprehended by his neighbours before he could take to his heels, and then he was handed over to the police.

A Walk of Shame (Short Fiction)

EDITH JUMPED OUT OF THE HOTEL BED and hastily wriggled into her pant, then her skirt. She found her bra lying on the floor; she retrieved it and began to strap it to arrest her heavy dangling breasts. The naked man on the bed was seemingly exhausted. He watched her keenly and gently rubbed his hairy chest down to his pot-belly that floated like a ball in a pool. His phone rang. Picking his call, he began to talk sweetly to the caller and lied about his whereabouts. She second-guessed him to be talking to his wife or one of his lovers. Now, she was fully dressed.
