James Ibor, a child rights activist, who facilitated the prosecution of the accused, said the case was reported to the police in February 2017.Delivering judgment, Agnes Onyebueke, the presiding judge, described the action of Udo as “satanic, demonic and beyond human comprehension”. Speaking on the development, Ibor described the judgement as a “great victory” for the victims and the Cross River government.“The police ensured that necessary medical examinations and autopsy were done on the deceased children, which aided the judgment,” he said.
