Minna – The people of Mariga town in Mariga Local Government Area of Niger State are now searching for more than 500 corpses suspected to have been washed away by floods.

The Chief Imam of Mariga, Alhaji Alhassan Na’ibi, said the corpses were exhumed from graves and washed by floods.

“We are now searching for over 500 corpses buried in a cemetery in Mariga town who we believe were washed away by flood in Mariga,” Na’ibi who spoke on phone said.

He said the community is in now in total confusion as it had to relocate about 100 other corpses from the cemetery to another burial ground to curb the incident.

The Chief Imam, who attributed the problem to activities of illegal miners near the grave yards, lamented that the community never experienced such a situation in over 60 years of the cemetery.
