If anyone had told Esther that the bundle of joy she celebrated some years ago would become a big threat to her life, she would have marked such person as an enemy.
But she is now wondering what had come over her child.
Scenes like this are often seen in Nollywood movies, but on that fateful day, it played out in reality to the witness of many.
It started with a noise from the victim’s house in the night. The noise had stolen her neighbours peace and forced them out of their houses to find out what was happening.
