The scary and shocking story of CLIFFORD ORJI Nigeria first known serial KILLER and CANNIBAL
Orji is originally from Enugu State, the south-eastern part of Nigeria, but lived in Lagos State, the southwestern part of Nigeria where he originally guided as a razor-blade merchant but would later abandon the trade and proclaim himself to be a shaman, and on multiple occasions would feign temporary insanity to dissuade people from coming close to his place of abode.
Orji did not possess a house and lived under a bridge in Oshodi-Isolo. in what could be well described as a lair and would later be commonly referred to as 'Clifford's kitchen." In the dead of the night, he usually blanketed the air with the meat-like odour from his special barbecue. People merely suspected that this barbecue-loving recluse was not normal; that he was possibly mad but no one was prepared for the horrendous discovery of that haunting Wednesday.
On February 3, 1999 A shrill cry of a famished and emaciated lady, waiting to be slaughtered, was what gave Orji away that Wednesday.
The noise attracted passers-by who not only discovered the woman but also stumbled on a collection of human parts in Orjis make-shift home. Human bones, skulls, legs, hands, freshly cooked soup with human meat, a cheque for 80,000, and a mobile phone, at a time when the G.S.M. had not been fully introduced to the Nigerian market, so only wealthy people had mobile phones. Surrounded, Orji ran but the crowd gave chase, no one noticed a small, emaciated woman imprisoned inside the tyres of Orjis shack. It was only after he was caught and dragged back to watch the mob demolish his home that Awawu Lawal was discovered awaiting her turn on the menu.
The sight of the filthy, starving woman drove the crowd wild. They beat her captor until the police arrived. Lawal died several days later after falling into a coma. The crowd then turned their attention to a man they knew to be Orjis friend, Tahiru Aliyu. He lived nearby. The mob tore his shack down too and found a 4-meter pit underneath where some of the victims were kept before they were killed and cooked. The cannibal told the police he would enter women by blowing on their foreheads, and they would then follow him back to the underpass. I will have a sexual affair with her to a state of coma before we slaughter her and roast her, he said. I am not alone. I have between four and 10 people. They take their own parts and go while I wait for another `meat. Orji
