Nigerians are currently demanding justice for a woman, Nnennaya Onu was brutally killed in Ebonyi state after demanding her father’s inheritance.
According to a statement released by the National Human Right Commission, NHRC, Nnenaya Onu, 35, was allegedly stripped naked, beaten, dismembered, and burnt behind her father’s house.
Nnenaya’s mother had travelled to be with another of her daughters named Juliet Onu, who is married.
The assailants then took advantage of her mother’s absense to attack Nnenaya, a single woman who lived in her father’s house with her mother.
Her burnt body was found behind her father’s house at Onicha Igbeze in Onicha Local Government Area late last year.
However, till now, no one has been arrested for her murder
The ebonyi State Coordinator of NHRC during an interview monitored by Oyogist said;
“She was murdered in cold blood, her leg chopped off and her whole belongings heaped on her while she was burnt beyond recognition.
“All these happened behind her father’s house at Onicha Igbeze of Onicha Local Government Area of Ebonyi State.
“Her offence is that she insisted on demanding her father’s inheritance as a woman. She was not married but lived in her late father’s house at Onicha Igbeze.
“Her only brother died years ago under mysterious circumstances according to the old mother. She has a surviving sister, Juliet Onu, who is married.
“Her old agonizing mother points at her cousins as the suspects of this atrocity due to their (the said Cousins) numerous threats to her life before she was eventually murdered, dismembered, and burnt.
