The deceased woman, a mother of one, who was accused of killing six people was allegedly burnt to death by the suspects on December 4, 2022.
Narrating the horrible incident at the police headquarters on Wednesday, the suspects admitted committing the heinous crime.
One of the suspects, Dogara James, said the deceased had confessed to killing three people while being interrogated by the ward head of Mughule.
He was quoted as saying, "A few days later, we stormed the residence of the deceased and started beating her as a result of which she confessed to causing the death of additional three people.
"While we were beating her, some young men came to the scene with petrol which it was used in burning late Martha."
The spokesperson for the Adamawa State Police Command, SP Suleiman Nguroje, said the suspects were being investigated.
"The Commissioner of Police, S. K. Akande, had directed that the suspects be charged to court after investigation and cautioned the general public to desist from taking laws into their own hands," Nguroje said.
Did she weigh as much as a duck?
“Emma Pious” is the name of a MAN? Anyway, this is one of those “not my circus” stories.
She turned me into a newt!
I was surprised by that too. Seems that 80% of “Emmas” in Nigeria are male.

Go figure. I wonder if it’s a diminutive of “Emmanuel” there.
Imagine yourself as a Christian Spaniard, arriving to central America in the early 1500s, and finding an entire society organized from top-to-bottom on a similar belief system, and practicing this, on a mass scale, for maintenance of their empire and political control.
It’s a shame we can’t burn witches here stateside.
Well, you can get Nigerians to pour bleach on them, and put a noose around their neck. For a price.

Geeze, you beat me to it!
Just wondering what their average IQ would be.
It would be nice to know what the graph is supposed to tell us. I suppose I could spend a couple of hours trying to figure it out but I have other things to do.

Who are we to judge? We allow 7-year-old boys to be castrated because they want to be girls.
From the above link:
Thea Jensen calls this period in history a "Women's Holocaust". She notes that a total number of victims is unknown but that the high number often given is nine million deaths, over a period of 300 or more years.
I think that number of 9 million is way exaggerated.
But these Wiccans (always feminist, leftist, LGBT-friendly) never talk about modern day witch burnings in Africa.
Dude you can’t just burn folks alive because you don’t agree with them.
