Missing pastor’s remains found in Bayelsa resident after 15 months

The decomposed remains of a 45-year-old pastor, Esere Okilo, have been discovered in his residence on Jacob Beredugo Street, Ekeki, Yenagoa, Bayelsa State after 15 months of being reported missing.

Okilo hailed from Nembe-Bassambiri and had been missing for about 15 months before his remains were discovered on Wednesday.

The discovery was made by one of his sisters, who visited the house due to accommodation issues.

She looked through a window and saw the skeleton of the pastor sitting on the toilet, wearing only a singlet.

The incident caused confusion in the area, as many residents claimed they were unaware of any foul odour coming from the apartment during the time Okilo was missing.

Groups of neighbours gathered on Thursday to discuss the revelation, describing Okilo as a devout man of God who kept mostly to himself.

Okilo lived in one of the two flats in the compound, while his elder brother and the brother’s wife occupied the other.
