Easter 2022 Turns Bloody, Seminarian Dies While Acting Jesus Drama in Imo

Easter 2022 has turned bloody as a seminarian died while acting Jesus drama in Imo State.

Gistlover reports that the Easter 2022 tragedy struck at Claratian University of Nigeria, Nekede, in Owerri, Imo State, southeastern Nigeria on Friday, April 15, 2022 as a seminarian, Suel Ambrose, slumped and died while acting in a drama on campus.

A report monitored on PUNCH Newspaper,  quoted the students to have said that the deceased who hailed from Benue State was dramatising the role of the biblical Peter in the Passion of Christ when the incident occurred.

The drama is a representation of the activities about how Jesus Christ was crucified. One of the students who simply identified himself as Mavis said the 25-year-old first-year student of Philosophy died on the spot.

The student said, “He was playing the role of the biblical Peter in the dream and that process when Peter cut the ear of one of the soldiers and Jesus fixed the ear and ask Peter to let them do their wish. You know how passionate the play is.

“So when the soldiers chase the disciples to drive them away from Jesus, the young man fell on the floor and started bleeding. We took him to our school hospital and the doctors did their best but he was not responding to treatment. We took him to the Federal Medical Center in Owerri where he was pronounced dead.”

“The drama was in commemoration of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ in respect to the Easter celebration. He was born in 1997. He is a year one student and had the dream of becoming a priest in the Catholic church.”
