A priest of the Catholic Diocese of Awka, Anambra State, whose name was given as Rev. Fr Jude Muokwe, has allegedly beaten up a 50-Year-Old Widow, Mrs Ikeorah Maureen.

The priest was said to have used a whip on the widow, flogging her mercilessly and inflicting multiple injuries on her in the process.

A Video of the widow, which is already trending on social media, showed the primary school teacher crying like a baby, and displaying bodily injuries inflicted on her by the priest.

The widow is said to be from Ifitedunu community in Dunukofia LGA and also a teacher in Angel Primary School, Ifitedunu, a school said to be owned and managed by the Catholic mission.

Though the real cause of the incident has not been ascertained, DAILY POST gathered that the widow and some other staff of the school were meeting in one of the classrooms in the school over salary increment, which they planned to pass to the management, when the priest came into the classroom and flogged her mercilessly, to the amazement of everyone.

When DAILY POST reached out to the priest, Rev Fr Jude Muokwe, to ascertain what truly happened, the priest did not deny the allegation. He simply said he would not like to comment on the matter.

“I cannot speak to you, I can’t speak especially to someone I do not know about this matter,” the priest said in a sober tone.
