An audio account obtained by ALEDEH, has revealed what could be the true story of the killings at St. Philips Catholic Church in Ozobulu (not Ozubulu as many have erroneously called the village) located in Ekusigo Local Government Area of Anambra state, Southeast Nigeria.

Recall that unknown gunmen attacked St. Philips Catholic Church in Ozobulu on Sunday, August 6, killing eleven (11) people and leaving eighteen (18) with serious injuries.

Why the main reason for the attack is still speculated by many, ALEDEH however obtained an audio account tracing the killings to a long drug battle which commenced in 2013 in South Africa.

The audio obtained by ALEDEH, revealed that the issue started when [b]Chief Aloy Ikegwuonu also known as Bishop, brought an indigene of Enugu state to South Africa to understudy how the drug business works.

The said Enugu indigene served under Bishop for 9 years after which he (Bishop) was to pay the unnamed Enugu indigene his entitlements which he delayed but later paid after serious pressure was mounted on him.

Though Bishop had taught the Enugu indigene the basics and other rules of the business, the Enugu indigene however grew more stronger in the business than Bishop and thereafter took many people (customers) who were patronizing Bishop at the time away.
This very act got Bishop pissed as he was seriously struggling with the business since the Enugu indigene had mastered the trade which eventually pulled more clients to him both...even Bishop's clients.

After seeing that he was growing stronger in the business and gaining more popularity than Bishop who taught him the trade, the Enugu indigene returned to Nigeria where he was able to convince a total of One hundred and eighty (180) men to fly with him from Nigeria to South Africa to act as partners in the drug business.

The audio also revealed that seventy (70) out of the 180 men were well known and successful drug barons in South Africa.
Apart from Bishop's clients patronizing this Enugu indigene, he also pulled away all the suppliers that Bishop had, thereby making more money than Bishop.

On seeing that he could not contend with the growing popularity of this Enugu indigene in the drug market space in South Africa, Bishop assassinated the man so as to regain his popularity and clients as well as his suppliers back.

Shocked by the assassination, the partners of this unnamed Enugu indigene launched an investigation so as to know his true killers as it was not yet known then that Bishop was the culprit.

The audio revealed that in the process of the investigation, a meeting was held in the house of the former chairman of Ozobulu people in South Africa known as Snoop. It was gathered that Snoop was asked to swear that he had no hand in the killing of this unnamed Enugu indigene which he (Snoop) refused and he was killed later.

While Snoop was killed, another identified as Ebubedike but mostly referred to as Ebubedike Ozobulu in South Africa lost his wife through assassination in America over the killing of this unnamed Enugu indigene.

Apart from Snoop and Ebubedike's wife, no fewer than twenty (20) people have been killed over the death of this unnamed Enugu indigene, the audio revealed.

Apparently scared with the killings, Bishop relocated to Nigeria, Anambra state to be precise where he had since become a well known contractor who is into road constructions.

Few years later, those seeking the revenge of this unnamed Enugu indigene, trailed Bishop down to Nigeria from South Africa.
Before the incident at St. Philips Catholic Church in Ozobulu, the assassins went to Bishop's compound they couldn’t find him, they made a phone call and were told that Bishop's father was in the church; so they decided to go there and unleash mayhem on anyone on sight.

The audio revealed that those sent on this mission are said to be from Kogi or people from Ebonyi state; who were hired to kill Bishop.

Bishop who is yet to know those who want him dead, was said to be in Owerri, the Imo state capital when the incident at the St. Philips Catholic Church occurred.
