What was intended to be a fine traditional display turned
out awry when a masquerader was reported to have chased a frightful 14 year old
boy into the path of a fast moving vehicle that eventually killed him.
The incident occurred on the Onitsha-Owerri axis also harboring a nearby police station.
The offending masquerader, also known as Okorosha was said
to have ran into a group of other masqueraders making identification difficult.
A confirmation of the incident has been made by the state
Police Public Relations Officer, Andrew Enwerem , Residence however hinged the
blame on the door steps of the traditional rulers who allow the masquerades and
their entourage of drummers to roam the streets without proper guidelines .
Home of Lizadrellah thinks the Imo States government can
take a cue from it’s Lagos State counterpart that restricts movement of major
Masquerades such as the Eyo to a confined space.
