Gunmen kill four men in Anambra state
Four persons have been killed in the early hours of Monday by Gunmen, in different parts of Anambra state.
It was reported that two brothers identified as Godwin Ikechukwu Modobi and Nnajiofor Modobi were killed in Umuhu village in Ukpor, Nnewi South Local Government Area of the state, while the two others were murdered along the Udorji Road, beside St. Mary’s Church, Ozubulu, in Ekwusigo LGA.
It was revealed that Godwin was a direct younger brother to Nnajiofor, and was also a former youth leader in the community.
The gunmen first killed Nnajiofor right in their house, after which they blindfolded and abducted the younger brother, whom they also eventually killed close to Utuh Junction and dumped his corpse at the centre of the road, the source revealed.
A trending video from the scenes of the incident, showed the corpse lying lonely at the centre of the deserted expressway, without a vehicle or pedestrian coming or going through the road.
Efforts to get DSP Tochukwu Ikenga, the Public Relations Officer of the state Police Command, proved abortive, as he was yet to respond to his message, at the time of filing this report.
The incident is happening less than four days after a similar attack was carried out at a beer parlour in Osumenyi, where five persons were killed.
