The lady tearfully said the major suspect, Victor, was caught in the act by his sister, who reported the matter to their mother.

But instead of taking it up strongly and reporting to the extended family, the woman merely prayed and swept the matter under the carpet.

Her words:

"She knew, because from what Ochanya said, it was the son Victor Ogbuja that started the whole thing. She said his sister, Winifred, caught him in the act and reported to the parents, the mother and the father. After she reported to them, that was when the father started. So when she reported, they scolded the guy, and according to them, they said they prayed together and they cautioned the boy not to try it again. But they didn't tell us. The whole thing is about Fecilicia. I keep saying it. People should stop dragging the man. The person who killed my sister is Felicial Ogbuja. Why didn't she tell us? She didn't even let us talk about it. She knew that this was the reason why this girl was sick, but she watched my sister, who suffered. Ochanya went through hell. Do you know what it means to be on the sickbed for almost three months? She couldn't walk. My mum will carry her to the bathroom, carry her to bathe her. And she was there all along. Why didn't she tell us? We could have taken her to a better place where she could get better treatment for what was done to her. But she didn't tell us and the doctors were just managing the symptoms of what was wrong with her."
