Three siblings – 9-year-old Chikaima, 8-year-old Chimziterem, and 5-year-old Chimdirim – have been found dead in a freezer at Nnewichi in Nnewi North Local Government Area of Anambra State.
It was gathered that the siblings were recently killed by unknown assailants, with their lifeless bodies stuffed in a deep freezer.
Their remains were laid to rest amidst heavy wailing by family and community members on Saturday, March 8, 2025.
In a homily during a requirm mass in honour of the trio at St. Michael’s Catholic Church, the Archbishop of Ekwulobia Diocese, Cardinal Ebere Okpalaeke, recalled the biblical story of Cain and Abel.
Okpalaeke said killing had been there since the creation of man, adding that the children, who were murdered in their early age, had become martyrs.
