In Anambra, Obuofia Village Under Siege As Gunmen Kidnap, Rape, Brutalise Citizens At Will


BY OZO RAY, Awka


Grapevine information has it that heinous crimes are allegedly being perpetrated at Obuofia village Aguluezechukwu in Aguata Local Government Area of Anambra State by bandits known as unknown gunmen.

It is said that villagers have deserted Obuofia because the daredevil hoodlums kidnapped, raped women and brutalised citizens freely without disturbances from security agencies.

While investigations reveal that Concerned Citizens of Obuofia village Aguluezechukwu have appealed to Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo to come to the rescue of the village as Obuofia has been under siege for the past three years with all forms of criminal activities being perpetrated on daily basis ranging from kidnapping, raping, extortions and a host of others, Obuofia villagers now find extremely difficult to return to their ancestral home during Christmas and other festive periods for fear of being kidnapped or killed.

Further investigations revealed that most of Obuofia village men have been abducted and murdered in cold blood by the bandits called unknown gunmen. It is said that the likes of Mr. Azubuike Ezenwabachili, Mr. Odili Chukwuka, Mr. Fabian Ezeobi and some others were said to be victims of gruesome murder by the kidnappers.

It is also said that Obuofia village women were not spared as they have been victims of rape and other vices unleashed on them by the criminal elements on daily basis.

The villagers are said to be helpless as they besiege Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo to help flush out unknown gunmen out of Obuofia.

They have also appealed to the governor to establish a Police Post or Army Checkpoint in Obuofia to serve as a means of deterring unknown gunmen from further camping in the town.

Obuofia villagers further appealed to Governor Soludo to question His Royal Highness Igwe Felix Ebelendu, his cabinet and the President-General of Aguluezechukwu Mr. JohnPaul Ezenwaka of their alleged deliberate silence over the criminal activities in their domain even as they begged the governor to help them reclaim their town from unknown gunmen.

Meanwhile, the Chairman of Obuofia village Mr. John Ezeobi, when contacted by this journalist, confirmed that the criminal activities perpetrated by daredevil gunmen in the area were yet to be addressed.

Although the President-General of the community, Mr. JohnPaul Ezenwaka, when contacted, said that stories of Obuofia village being surrounded by unknown gunmen were mere falsehoods intended to tarnish the image of the town.

But the traditional ruler, His Royal Highness Igwe Felix Ebelendu, on his part, mandated this journalist to seek any information he needed about insecurity in Obuofia village from the Commissioner of Police Anambra State.

unknown gunmen = ESN

Some people can't visit their villages again because they have been taken over by ESN.

Obuofia is enjoying Biafra government under Ipob rules. They are kidnapping, rapping and killing people they said they are fighting for their freedom.

Have we ever witness such organized criminal gang occupying Igbo Towns and villages until 2020 Nnamdi Kanu launched his private army called esn that operates under the name of ugm?

Always like to claim heโ€™s Igbo, but you can smell his impostor status from a mile off!

No surprises hereโ€ฆ..a Yoruba Tinubu minion scouring the net for negative news from the south-east so he can rush to post on nairaland! Then his ilk fall over themselves to get their own daft, smug, bigoted and anti-Igbo jab in!
