A young man identified simply as Ifeanyi, who was allegedly abducted in Okpuno, Awka North Local Government Area of Anambra, has been found dead, IGBERETV reports.

The victim, an indigene of Awgu community in the Orumba North Local Government Area of Anambra State, was said to be abducted two days to Christmas by some suspected kidnappers.

According to a source, the body of the abducted man was found dumped by the roadside on Christmas Day in Awka, the state capital.

"He was kidnapped on Friday on Geneva Hotel road. I don’t know the exact point where his lifeless body was found, but it was found by the roadside," the source said.

“If such a barbaric outing can take place in the capital city of the state, without any intelligence as regards hunting the perpetrators of this crime down, then I can confidently tell you that no person is safe down there,” the source added.

Confirming the incident, spokesman of the State Police Command, DSP Tochukwu Ikenga, said that it was not a kidnap case.

"It is 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," he stated.

"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,” Ikenga added.

Meanwhile, a friend of the deceased, Ebuka Okoye, who posted his photograph on his Facebook wall decried growing insecurity in the state.

Ebuka wrote;

"One death too many!!!

This sweet soul was kidnapped in the heart of State capital on Friday, and just yesterday evening, his lifeless body was seen at the road side.

I hereby join the good people of Anambra State to call for Gov Charles Chukwuma Soludo's impeachment.
It'll interest you to know that under this actor's watch as a governor, Anambra State has lost many vibrant citizens to insecurity.
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 humongous crime down, then I can confidently tell you that no person is safe down there. Not even his aides or all these House of assembly members that dubiously playing in gallery. And I've also foreseen this heading to where we will start celebrating their deaths, for refusing to do what they're elected to do.
Impeach Soludo, he's notoriously incompetent!!!
In the midst of all the deaths that's trolling our people, he's busy comparing himself to Nnamdi Azikiwe of the blessed memory... Gush!

Anyi, rest on bro... Your last pains and tears on their hands will hunt them down....

#CallForSoludoImpeachment
#ImpeachSoludo
#DeGame"

Naeche Okoye who described the deceased as his younger brother, said:

“Ifeanyi my junior brother continue resting in peace till we meet to part no more Amen… Awgbu Ebenese lost one of his honest son, very painful.”

RIP Champ.

Never follow kidnappers, even if they aiming weapon on you, you must run or fight to escape.

As for Soludo, his election was assisted by IPOB sit at home order, which IPOB cancelled a day or two before the poll ensuring an extremely low turnout which in Nigeria invariably favours the ruling party in state governorship elections.

By his inactions he is giving tacit support to IPOB terrorism, as are all SE governors with the exception of Umahi of Ebonyi state.

Peter Obi should call his boys to order.

You kidnap, kill, then ask for the impeachment of the governor who opposes you.

you people said Peter Obi is evil, that he used SARS to kill IPOB members. Now from the same mouth you are saying the same IPOB are his boys. Are you people not mentally deranged?
