"Ete Ibam's death is really a mystery but he led himself to such a gory death. What actually happened stemmed from the fact that he raped his sister's 18 year-old daughter and the girl laid a curse on him.

The mother of the girl lives in Ikorodu but the girl decided to leave home and go to Ogudu to live with her uncle.
