Reports circulating in Nigerian media indicate that a 21-year-old man, Samuel Emobor has allegedly strangled his own mother to death and went on to have sex with her corpse.
It is not clear whether the young man thought sex with his own biological mother would only be enjoyable when she is lifeless.
Vanguard News confirms that the incident occurred on Monday, October 29, 2018.
The news outlet gathered that the suspect hoped to get fetish money after completing the process with the deceased identified as Mrs. Christiana Ighoyivwi.
The victim's mum Mrs. Maria Gabriel reportedly walked in the weird event following a visit to her daughter's.
