According to reports, a Nigerian man named Chikwado Eze died after being buried alive for one hour and thirty minutes as part of a fortification ceremony that his father and a local physician had organized.
A tweet on the social networking site X, formerly known as Twitter, disclosed the occurrence, which has caused a great deal of controversy.
Before leaving for his trip overseas, Eze, whose visa had just been granted, went back to his hometown to tell his father the news, the post said.
His father brought him to a native doctor and recommended that he undergo a fortification rite to guarantee his success abroad.
As part of the ceremony, the native doctor suggested that Eze be buried alive for an hour and a half before being exhumed.
However, it was found that Eze had passed away when the time came and he was excavated.
After receiving a complaint about the occurrence, the police detained the father and the local physician.
