A 70 year old man might have cheated death when he came back to life after spending three days in a mortuary in Makurdi, the Benue state capital.
Doctors at a private hospital in the town had on Saturday, August 26, 2015, certified Amos Otene dead at 4. 30 am and promptly covered him up and wheeled him into the mortuary, awaiting instructions from members of the family for embarment.

When one of his sons who stays in Lafia returned home to confirm the death, according to Eche,the son at about 1.39 pm, “the morticians at the hospital wheeled out the trolley containing my father and unveiled the face for me to see.

It was in this process that the supposedly he started raising his right hand and all of us fled towards the reception area of the mortuary. From a safe distance we watched as my father lifted himself and sat on the bed and that was about seven minutes later. One of the attendants eventually summoned enough courage and approached my father who fell back on the trolley.”

Eche said that the doctors ordered that the resurrected man be readmitted in the ward where remained in the ward till Tuesday when the doctors carried out series of tests and certified Otene fit for discharge.
