The man, said to be an indigene of Awgu, a community in Orumba North Local Government Area of Anambra State, was kidnapped at Okpuno, close to Geneva Hotel.

A man simply identified as Ifeanyi, who was allegedly abducted on Friday last week, just two days to Christmas, has been found dead with cut marks on his body.

The man, said to be an indigene of Awgu, a community in Orumba North Local Government Area of Anambra State, was kidnapped at Okpuno, close to Geneva Hotel.

Meanwhile, a source, Mr Ebuka Okoye, who took to his Facebook page, revealed that the body of the abducted man was found on Christmas day in Awka.

Responding to Dailypost enquiry, Ebuka said: “He was kidnapped on Friday along Geneva Hotel road. I don’t know exact point where his body was found.”

Earlier, he had posted a picture of the deceased on his Facebook wall, with a write up saying: “One death too many!!! This sweet soul was kidnapped in the heart of the state capital on Friday, and just yesterday evening, his lifeless body was seen by the roadside.”

Ebuka had blamed the level of insecurity in Anambra State on Governor Chukwuma Soludo, who he said had shown incompetence in the face of all the killings.

“If such a barbaric outing can take place in the capital city of the state, without any intelligence as regard to hunting the perpetrators of this crime down, then I can confidently tell you that no person is safe down there. Not even his (Soludo’s) aides or all these House of Assembly members that (are) dubiously playing to the gallery.”

Meanwhile, the state police command has confirmed the death of Ifeanyi. The state police command’s spokesperson, DSP Tochukwu Ikenga denied that it was a case of kidnap. He said the matter was being investigated.

“It’s a pure case of murder and is still under investigation. We urge the witnesses where the dead body was found to volunteer information that will support the ongoing investigation.

“Preliminary information shows that it could be cult-related as there were marks of axe cuts on the deceased body. Meanwhile, the body has been recovered and deposited in the morgue,” he said.

The APC boss, according to a source, had expressed displeasure over the election and reportedly drew the attention of the new Council area chairman, Hon. Chima Ekumankama, who cancelled the election and called for the group’s disbandment.

On a visit to the area by the APC stalwart, the hoodlums were said to have opened fire on him and his Ebubeagu orderlies,  and pitted them in a gun duel.

Sensing that the alleged AK-47 wielding hoodlums had overpowered his Pump Action-wielding Ebubeagu orderlies, the party chieftain retreated and proceeded to Abakaliki, capital of Ebonyi State.

While in Abakaliki, news filtered in, that his country home has been set on ablaze by the suspected hoodlums.

Confirming the incident, the APC chairman, Okoro-Emegha, said he was attacked by thugs loyal to a politician in the area, saying his house has equally been burnt by the suspects.

“Yes. It’s true. They attacked me tonight at Ekoli Edda community, and the same people, some of whom I know,  I have just heard burnt my house,” he said.

“These are Eni’s boys and they attacked me and they are they people that burnt my house. I call on the police and other security agencies to swing into action. They know what to do to unravel the truth of the matter. They know what to do.”
