There was pandemonium on Sunday morning in Ayedun Area of Akure, Ondo state when a lifeless body of a middle aged woman identified as Funke Ojo, was found dead inside a well at the church premises.

The victim’s body was said to have been found in a well that belong to a Cherubim and Seraphim Church where she was taken to for spiritual deliverance on Saturday evening.

The people in the neighbourhood, who spoke on the unfortunate occurence, were taken aback by the sad incident and none could unravel the mystery leading to Ojo’s death.According to them, she did not have any past history of mental disorder. They said she departed her mother’s house for a church programme, while none of the church members took cognizance of her presence in the premises.

“On Saturday night, she complained to her mother that she was having a slight malaria fever. So she later told her mother that she wanted to go to the church. The mother was even asking her to rest since she had malaria but she insisted on going to the church.

“Nobody knew how she got into the well, it was somebody who wanted to fetch water in the well on Sunday morning that saw her lifeless body inside the well and raised the alarm to call the attention of residents,” a source said.
