There was commotion in Warri, Delta state yesterday after a 15-year-old girl who was presumed to have died suddenly woke as she was about to be buried at the Warri Cemetery.
The girl, whose name could not be ascertained at press time, reportedly died at about 5a.m. yesterday and was wrapped in a mat and placed on top of the soak away at Warri Motor Park.
It was learnt that the girl suspected to be pregnant, allegedly took concoction and went into deep sleep which ostensibly made people suspect she might have given up the ghost.
It was learnt that sympathisers made up mostly of youths saw her completely naked and presumed that she had died, wrapped her in mat and headed for the cemetery.
“When we got to the cemetery, the workers there dug the grave for her burial. As the remains were laid into the grave and they were about covering it with sand, the deceased sneezed and jumped out of the grave and started shouting,” said a witness.
Consequently, there was pandemonium within and outside the cemetery as scores of people thronged the cemetery to catch a glimpse of the ‘resurrected’ girl.
Sources, however, stated that the girl was immediately rushed to Christ Mercyland Deliverance Ministry, Effurun, near Warri for spiritual cleansing.
Attempt by policemen near the cemetery to take the girl to the station was rebuffed by sympathisers who insisted that the matter did not concern the police. They said it was a spiritual issue.
