One is to be hung by his neck until he dies while the other is to be hung by the leg till he dies as well.
Dike, who was 23 years old when the incident happened in 2017, was apprehended by a local vigilante group in the Eliozu axis of Port Harcourt with a sack containing Chikamso’s remains following a tip-off. The local security outfit later handed Dike over to the police for further investigations and prosecution.
He (Dike) reportedly removed the victim’s eyes, vagina, finger and tongue, after defiling and murdering her with the assistance of his cousin, Ugochukwu.
Few days after he was handed over to the police, Dike escaped from the premises of the State Criminal Investigation Department, (SCID), with the aid of Sgt Johnbosco Okoronze the police personnel on duty who failed to handcuff the suspect after he had finished writing his statement.

Dike’s escape raised serious criticism and condemnation on the police even as the then Rivers State Commissioner of Police, Zaki Ahmed, described it as unfortunate and an embarrassment to the police force, adding that such mistake resulted due to an individual’s negligence.
Few weeks later, Dike was re-arrested in Jos by security operatives and was brought back to Port Harcourt for trial.
During trials of the case, the police prosecutor, Sgt. Blessing Oheyen tendered the body parts of the victim as evidence to the court.
Barely, three years after the trial, the Judge, Justice Adolphus Enebele, ruled that the evidence before the court shows that the duo conspired and murdered Chimkamso and hence, sentenced them to death.
The judge also sentenced Sergeant Johnbosco Okoronze of the State CID to one-year imprisonment for aiding the escape of Dike from Police Custody in Port Harcourt.
Family of Chikamso,the victim,expressed relief on the judgement delivered while relatives of Dike were seen in court weeping after the judgement.

*Please can someone explain the hung by the leg part?how does someone die if you hang them by the leg?
The heart of a man😫
ReplyDeleteThank God justice finally prevailed.
I pray others learn from this and stay away for doing evil.
They will gather like Vultures and start shouting 'Heart of men ' bla bla bla now.
DeleteYou r equally guilty of same crime if u have ever, 1 consulted a baba/pastor for charms b it in form of make up or tied nylon, 2 gone for those fetish prayers they ask u to bath in a river at 9t, 3 collected whatever to boom ur biz, 4 asked to b given whatever to attract men, 5 using assistance from baba them to support ur marriage, 5. Doing Sahara abi salaka for innocent kids because baba asked u 2. 6,given baba/pastor huge amount of money so he can take care of sacrifice while he does d biding for u,those gifts u give,r given to Hench men to go look for innocent children to kill and collect same thing this boy did. Una know una selves, Or u tot those rubbish u get tru a friend that took u to his baba/pastor is what? Before u come to disgrace urself under my comment pls go renew ur 'thing' and check under where u hid the Calabash to b sure ur children hasn't mistaken it for bead container/toys. Heartless nation. Heartless wicked loveless country!
When u heartlessly buy a trafficed child, wen u go beg Egberima for a child, wen u soil ur hands for wealth, wen u r just too greedy and ready to do anything for money. This and many more r d results, the chain goes on. The Holy book says u ripe what u sow. Check his linage comma dey am
Delete@Anony, I don't get you.Everything you have written up there are still summed up as "The heart of Man" as Baeisbeulah has said.
DeleteYou are still saying thesame thing with "They" just that you broke down some of these evils for easy identification for those involving in such. Same Criticism,Same Admonitions but different styles. I believe that the people that they are for got it.
I reject the generalisation of "Heartless nation. Heartless wicked loveless country"
Evil will never reign over Good. There are always Remnants.
#LOVE😍
Mouth piece of the gods pls leave my comment or r u guilty?
DeleteYou still refused to assimilate, understand and reason.
DeleteBest wishes.
#LOVE😍
Anonymous 9:26, only you with all this explanation 😏. Na dem dem, it's obvious ure a fetish person to know all these qualities.
DeleteRada rada 😏😏😏.
Bitter soul, have some honey 🍯.
Heartless bastard....idiots...niccompos....useless hooligans..oh my Jesus!!they should be fed to hungry lions.....Heartless b astards.
ReplyDeleteIt's a slow death and more painful. The guy will pray for death but it won't come on time. It might even take him a whole day before he dies.
ReplyDeleteKudos to that Judge.
Very well deserved.
DeleteI also suggest this for boko haram members.
Good judgment
ReplyDeleteWhatever a man soweth he shall reap. Well done judge
DeleteThe killer's relatives were crying in court, really??
ReplyDeleteFamilies are the biggest enablest of these perverts and deviants...
Most times, they know what they do and choose to turn a blind eye...
My condolence to the little girls family...
Chizzy j..
AGREED
DeleteAnd to think the killer is a relative to the girl's father.
DeleteMay she continue to rest in peace.
Chizzy I will say it again. If my child becomes a deviant na me go 1st call police. This one no b mother love again. Bastards
DeleteMy dear Anonymous, you can say that again, about some family/people being the biggest enablers.
DeleteI do not pity criminals, most especially murderers no matter who the person is to me or to the society.
Wait, why won't his family cry???? Even if u rat out ur son, dyu think you'd be happy still. They probably know he deserved it but they will still be sad that he will die? It's common sense.
DeleteJustice delayed isn't justice denied. Anyone that has the mind to kill a human, especially a child deserves to die in the worst possible way. I have no pity for him at all.
The family that cried is the second person own. They killed ugochukwu was not directly involved with her death
DeleteMothers I beg you in the name of God train your boys...too many damn things associated with them: wife batterers, yahoo, armed robbery, gruesome murderers, extortionists etc....
ReplyDeleteLike how does one gorge out eyes and vagina of an 8 yr old and still walk about as if he's done nothing
Mothers AND FATHERS should train their children.
DeleteMost times it's not all about the training. I am not saying training a child in a good way is bad. What I am saying is that, most children are just destined to be wayward and useless. I had a friend whose parents are strong Christians. And you and I know how Nigerian true Christian parents train their children. That girl was raise by the way of the Lord. But immediately she got admission into the University, she became something else. As I talk to you now, that girl is a high class prostitute. This was a girl that was raised in a strong Christian home. My former landlord and his wife are chain smokers and non Christians. But their only two sons vowed never to be like them. Those boys are true believers in the Lord and non smokers. See, days are gone we pin the waywardness of children on their parents. I know of a Bishop in an Angelican church, a real Bishop whose son was an executioner in Uniport and a well known cultist up till date. Most times peer group not parents can influence the life of a child negatively. Please let's change our mentality. This is 21st century.
DeleteParents should train their kids, whether male or female., They should trained and nurture them right, in respect and fear to their creator and respect to all humans and the society at large.
DeleteLies!no one is destined to be wayward! check her parents,wha w they portray outside might be quite different from who they are at home!
DeleteAnon 9.52. No be by Christian home or coming from a strong family home. And again nobody was created to go wayward
DeleteIt boils down to how you grow up and the environment you grow up from.
Children from Christain home are worst becos they are being tie down too much. So any little freedom dey over do it wen they enter school. Training a child is more of psychological, spiritual. Emotionally and all. Being a Christian does not mean your kids wont have friends! How many Christians home talk about sex education to their kids! How many pastor father educate their boys on peer pressure and sexuality. They shy away from those sexual talk. They see sex talks as sin.Forgetting we are sexual beings. All they will say is. No follow boy oo! By the time the child go out, he or she will learn all the bad tins from their fellow friends. Not being able to differentiate the bad from good. They start acting like a dog that was released from prison.
Anon 9:52 only God and him alone knows anyone very very well. U and I only know a human being as far as our eyes can see. Only God knows us to our darkest secrets, in our closets. Forget all the religious angles u see. Yes agreed some are test but if i tell u my first hand experience with some so called Christian sisters n brothers, u will be amazed at how good their pretence game is.
DeleteWell said @SEXY HIPS. You said exactly what came to my when I read anon 9:52 comment.
DeleteTruth is, some of us can't trust our emotions in certain circumstances. C see cases of a good person just suddenly pushed by God knows what to commit a senseless crime. God's guidance shd b our prayers always.
DeleteRest in pieces
ReplyDeleteJustice has finally prevailed.
ReplyDeleteHanging by leg? Hearing it for the first time. Justice served to the wicked souls.
ReplyDeleteOohh!
ReplyDeleteI remember this news, so it's three years already? The anuofia deserves to die any type/kind of death, he's a devilish monster.
That innocent beautiful girl would have been eleven years old this year.
The weeping family are definitely not weeping because they are about to loss that role model of lucifer I'm seeing up there. They are probably weeping for the pure inhumane evil perpetrated by their demonic son
ReplyDeleteAnd the shame it has brought upon them
Deletepainful death penalty but I wished they were asked to sit on a electric chair till they die.
ReplyDeleteI think when the person is hung by the legs, the blood flows to the head and start gushing out through the ears, nose, eyes and mouth. The person will be begging for death to come.
@your last paragraph, they deserve a painful death. Evil things!
DeleteThe family crying at the verdict or what? If they were hoping these boys will be given a lighter sentence or an option of fine, may God send them the same fate their sons meted on the victim.
If you say the soup you/they cooked is good, enjoy it.
This is what I'll term as Justice served.
ReplyDeleteBeen Hung by the leg is a slow but excruciating death.
Man inhumanity to man... This is wickedness of the highest order.
ReplyDeleteHe should rot in the hottest part of hell
Stella, it is a wild wild West kinda of hanging. In the past, they used to hand them in the leg, I have watched an old movie like that.
Can't imagine the trauma the parent's of the deceased must have passed through and still passing through.I pray more of them are being caught and justice served.What a pity.
ReplyDeleteTheir bodies should be cut in pieces for dogs to feed on demons👹👺!
ReplyDeleteHard man wike should sign the death warrant immediately... if not that man still be alive until whenever it gets signed.
ReplyDeleteBloody bastards!
ReplyDeleteDie well
Stella dats d worst kind, d guy will die slowly...
ReplyDeleteIs jez like keeping som1 upside down, d blood will start flowing to one direction which is in d brain. Wat do i even knw.
Heart of man is truly wicked. Poor girl.
ReplyDeleteJustices finally served !!!
Confirm justice! Wicked souls...
ReplyDeleteMay Chikamso's soul rest well with God and the angels. This is so painful...
Dis by leg own gidigan ni......slow death like they subjected the innocent child to. Na blood go just rush full him skull. Thank God justice prevailed.
ReplyDeleteI remember this very news then.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy right now,serves them right.
Justice serviced, now the family of the victim can find closure. Rest In Peace little angel.
ReplyDeleteI pray judgement is carried out with immediate effect... May their soul rot in hell 🔥
ReplyDeleteWhen you pray to God for a child or when you are ready to have children. Please pray that God should give you children that will make you smile in your old age not children that will give you high blood pressure. Speak grace and good destiny to your protruding tummy. No curse will affect your child in whatever way.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it takes a lot more than good upbringing.
good judgment there
ReplyDeleteLook at the torture they put this girl through all in the bid to get rich quick.
ReplyDeleteInstead it f facing their studies, they want quick cash.
Stellakoko, the death by hanging of legs is more painful than the other one. Turning the person's head down with blood flowing downward. It will be a slow and painful death.
Justice served to the bastards
ReplyDeleteMay their souls rot in hell
Justice served
ReplyDeleteI remember when this new hit the media. Thank God for justice and a much befitting one at that. Not some of these imprisonements that turns to some to worst criminals and monsters.
ReplyDeleteWhy are their families wailing? Is it that they don't have conscience or what? These men cut short a young soul in such depraving and perverting circumstances and you are wailing,over what really?
They ought to have flogged them out of that courtroom,what selfishness.
If anything,they should apologise to the family of that little soul and they ought to show remorse.
Let them face judgement,its justice taking it's course.
But there is a bright side for them,and i pray that God opens their eyes to maximise the few days/weeks/months that they have before execution to right their ways with Him. This is a wonderful opportunity for them to exit into glory. I pray that someone will divinely give them the Good News and that their hearts will not be hardened that the reject it even at this point🙏.
No situation or person is a hopeless one if we open the doors of our hearts to God. He will always find a way to turn the situation to our advantage.
The worst that can happen to any body is losing while on earth and loosing in eternity.
#LOVE😍
Waisted sperm and waisted pregnancy. May they also cut off his penis before hanging him. Thank God he is apprehended.
ReplyDeleteThey should change the name of that district in PH from "Eliozu" (corpse burial)💀😮😮😮😮 to something good.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we'd not be reading these types of horror stories anymore
Glory be to God that justice is served... No pity at all...
ReplyDeleteFinally!! May God console the fami of that innocent girl
ReplyDeleteWhy are people asking why the families are wailing??? No matter how terrible someone is, you think their families will just clap and dance for joy when this happens????
ReplyDeleteIt's perfectly normal. It doesn't mean they are bad people. They are only humans.
Took long enough but justice finally served. Good!
ReplyDeleteIt didn't take long. 2 years few month OK.
