“The suspect said he has been into the act since 2016 when one Emmanuel Okeke introduced him to it. He also told us how vigilante arrested him and his master, Emmanuel Okeke, at Idemili and how Okeke escaped from the vigilante.

“The suspected homosexual said he had introduced over 50 youths to the act. Some people saw him and his partner naked, clinging to each other in an abandoned building and alerted the youths of the community.

“His partner escaped, but the youths caught him. They beat him and he confessed to have been a homosexual since 2016 and has introduced many people to the act,” the eyewitnesses said.

Another youth in the community, who gave his name as Kelechi Onu, said the suspected homosexual was handed over to the police.

However, efforts to get the reaction of the Abia State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Anthony Ogbizi, failed as he did not pick calls put to his mobile line.
