A woman has been banished from Umekpu Village in Ogbaku, Mbaitoli Local Government Area of Imo State after allegedly selling her sister-in-law’s son for ₦800,000.
Sources say the village leadership acted swiftly after the allegations surfaced, declaring her persona non grata in the community.
A video released on Thursday shows the woman being escorted out of the village by a crowd of residents, who sang derogatory songs and taunted her as she left.
In the footage, a community leader explained the decision:
“We are banishing her from our community, Umekpu Village, Ogbaku, in Mbaitoli Local Government Area of Imo State,” he said.
“She sold her sister-in-law’s son, the son of her brother’s wife, for ₦800,000, and for that reason, we have to banish her.”
