The latest on the developing story is that the dismembered body was discovered near the home of Andrew Amaechi Ochekwo, who had recently accommodated two missing friends, Celine and her Ghanaian friend, Afiba. The women were declared missing after traveling from Port Harcourt, Rivers State, to Abia State on April 27, 2024, to meet Andrew, whom they had met on Facebook. Read here
Nigerian activist Harrison Gwamnishu, who has been closely following the case, confirmed the discovery of the decomposing body. He reported that the body was found headless, and missing its hands and legs, wrapped in a curtain similar to those in Andrew’s home. Andrew was recently killed while trying to escape from arrest.
Gwamnishu emphasized that it is still uncertain if the body belongs to either of the missing women.
He wrote:
“ONE DECOMPOSING DEAD BODY FOUND NEAR OPPOSITE ANDREW’S HOUSE
HEAD, TWO HANDS, TWO LEGS NOT VISIBLE.
You all remember that a few days ago, I posted that anyone with useful information on the whereabouts of Celine and Afiba should send a message and their identity would be protected.
Yesterday, at about 10:00 pm, we arrived in Aba accompanied by police officers from FIB-IRT Abuja. We went out for a search and discovered a decomposed body wrapped and dumped near the ZeeRock area in Ogbor-Hill, Aba, Abia State.
We are yet to ascertain if the body is one of the victims or someone else and wish to appeal to NDI Abia to assist us in finding the whereabouts of Celine and Afiba.
I understand that there is a disconnect between the security agencies and the people, which is why I am here in person. Any information sent to me will be kept confidential to ensure no one is put in danger. HELP US TO KEEP EVERYONE SAFE.”
The investigation is ongoing, and authorities are urging the public to come forward with any information that could aid in locating Celine and Afiba.
