Justice may have come the way of a lady, Christiana Augustine, whose two eyes were forcefully plucked out by her lover, Abubakar Mohammed, for alleged money rituals in Adamawa State. 
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the 40-year old Mohammed was sentenced to death by a High Court sitting in Yola, Adamawa State, over the dastardly act having been charged for culpable homicide.
The Police prosecutor, Abubakar, said the father of seven killed Christiana in 2020 and removed her eyes and other body parts after he was told that he could make N10 million from someone looking for human eyeballs.
The prosecutor told the Presiding Judge, Justice Bulila Ikaro, that Abubakar reportedly met one Buhari Mohammed, who allegedly told him about a man who wanted human eyeballs for money rituals.
“On the day of the incident, Abubakar went to Christiana Augustine’s house and asked her to meet him at an uncompleted building where they usually met.”
While they were there, he brought out his knife, slit her throat and plucked out her eyeballs, which he intended to take to the buyer and collect the promised money.
However, he ran out of luck as Abubakar was arrested the next day when the body of Christiana was found in the uncompleted building and detained by the Police for interrogation over death of the deceased.
During interrogation, he reportedly admitted and confessed that he murdered her and plucked her eyes, which he wanted to sell to make money before he was caught.
The Court found him guilty as charged.
While delivering judgement, Justice Ikaro said the prosecution had proven the case beyond any reasonable doubt and sentenced Abubakar to death after finding him guilty of culpable homicide and for being in possession of the human parts for sale.
