It was gathered that her body was exhumed from a shallow grave in a neighbouring local government to Otukpo last week.
According to one of the deceased’s colleagues, all efforts to locate her prove abortive until a commercial motorcyclist disclosed where she was buried.
The cyclist was said to have told the family of the deceased that their daughter was allegedly killed and buried by her husband-to-be for ritual purposes.
The cyclist led the family and security operatives to arrest the groom who in turn led the police to Ogun State where they arrested the native doctor alleged to have performed the ritual at Obi LGA before his relocation to a south west state.https://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/ads?client=ca-pub-2427099653703778&output=html&h=300&adk=2141876619&adf=965097895&pi=t.aa~a.1834861711~i.31~rp.4&w=360&lmt=1622622682&num_ads=1&rafmt=1&armr=3&sem=mc&pwprc=4779063894&psa=1&ad_type=text_image&format=360×300&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lindaikejisblog.com%2F2021%2F6%2Ffiance-arrested-as-body-of-nscdc-officer-who-went-missing-days-to-her-wedding-is-found-buried-in-shallow-grave.html&flash=0&fwr=1&pra=3&rh=275&rw=330&rpe=1&resp_fmts=3&sfro=1&wgl=1&fa=27&adsid=ChEI8NjchQYQq8THiaPw3qW9ARIvAMC-8duEIt8jJJjhiNDMB3LUcRswqCPk3ejnS1pCLP9-Y_pBjG0LZt2BIGyYJ18&dt=1622622681837&bpp=26&bdt=7912&idt=-M&shv=r20210525&cbv=%2Fr20190131&ptt=9&saldr=aa&abxe=1&cookie=ID%3D40b8097dd0e7c216-2253f13045c800be%3AT%3D1621431236%3ART%3D1621431236%3AS%3DALNI_MaTUeOfHD9dt6iZSzMqqRDzzOcAzA&prev_fmts=360×300%2C360x300%2C0x0%2C360x300%2C360x300&nras=4&correlator=3700961965234&frm=20&pv=1&ga_vid=1395618283.1619456010&ga_sid=1622622677&ga_hid=1041430912&ga_fc=0&u_tz=60&u_his=2&u_java=0&u_h=800&u_w=360&u_ah=800&u_aw=360&u_cd=24&u_nplug=0&u_nmime=0&adx=0&ady=2876&biw=360&bih=664&scr_x=0&scr_y=387&eid=31060974%2C31060474&oid=3&psts=AGkb-H8mgc0NtIjMcTFrDI-4mkAB0Yq3qqpfdhs3VQ0yiKG4-CcMjJC2wdsBgj05W0mVHSvxWVDsyjcfaQ&pvsid=1542790145080554&pem=231&ref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lindaikejisblog.com%2F&eae=0&fc=384&brdim=0%2C0%2C0%2C0%2C360%2C0%2C360%2C720%2C360%2C720&vis=1&rsz=%7C%7Cs%7C&abl=NS&fu=128&bc=31&jar=2021-06-01-15&ifi=6&uci=a!6&btvi=4&fsb=1&xpc=HxbeNGjUww&p=https%3A//www.lindaikejisblog.com&dtd=264
