Tragedy struck Sunday morning at Umuakoro Village in Emekuku Owerri North Local Government Area of Imo state when 9 bodies of the Pascal Njoku Family were found dead at their residence in the early hours of the day.
According to sources, Mr. Pascal Njoku who worked and resided in Port-harcourt, Rivers state, had come back home for the final burial ceremony of his mum who died some months ago. He was accompanied by his wife, 5 children, his sister-in-law and her son. Shortly after the burial on Saturday, they all went to their respective rooms to sleep.
However, in the early hours of Sunday, all nine of them were found dead. At the moment, the reason of their deaths could not be ascertained. But sources said their mouths were all foaming profusely when the bodies were brought out of the rooms.
The Imo State Commissioner of health Obi Njoku who visited the scene of the occurrence said from the foaming found in their mouth, there is a possibility that they might have died of food poisioning. The commissioner has also informed that the state government will carry out an autopsy to know the cause of their death.
May God put an end to such a calamity. May their souls rest in peace. Let the State Government carry out the autopsy as said and the nation brief of the outcome.
Village bad belle people fit don do them something be that….. 1.first police shud confiscate all food material found around the house including water and test them for presence of poison. This has to be done immediately b4 the culprit goes to remove them. 2. Then they shud get a good doctor to open their stomach and collect samples of the food in them for lab test for presence of poison. 3. They shud also check for possible gas poisoning tru generator 4. Then find out who last visited them, or spent time with them b4 they went to bed

This is pathatic as wel mysterious. If it were truely food poison I think there should have been adverse reaction of discomfort & cruel abnormalities dat wud have attracted attention. No vomit, no incessant stooling, no screaming, & no call for help. Just foaming & death? Something went wrong somewhere. U & I do not know but God undstds. But rememba, D SOUL DAT SINNETH IT SHAL DIE. FOR GOD SHAL JUDGE ALL D SECRET OF MAN.
