A high court sitting in Akamkpa, Cross River, has sentenced one Ayanime Udo to death for killing his twin daughters.

On January 10, 2017, Udo was said to have poisoned his 11-year old twin daughters — Mfoniso and Emediong — by giving them a malt drink mixed with acid from his motorcycle over allegation that they were witches.

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.
