Jack the ripper of Abakaliki; lhe late Chief Obodo is led to court fo face charges of murder. Six feet of terror, six feet of bluster and swashbuckling. It was said he sent hundreds of people to their final resting place. But, like all tough guys, he went too far, put his own neck in a noose. And a big sigh of relief swept Abakaliki. It was a face feared by the people, but now it holds no threat.
