A young man identified as Izuchukwu Charles Igweka, has been killed by unknown gunmen two days to his traditional wedding in Anambra State, IGBERETV reports.

It was gathered that the incident happened in Ukpor Town, Nnewi South Local Government Area of the state around 10 pm on Wednesday night, January 5, 2023.

Late Izuchukwu was set to tie the knot traditionally with his partner, Chinenye Linda Chukwuchekwa on January 7, in Ezekwuabo-Otolo Nnewi.

His friend, Obi Chibuike Charles said that they were together when the gunmen attacked them.

"It's very hard to type goodbye bro but God knows the best, Nigeria has happened to you and Nigeria has failed you bro," Obi wrote.

"Full of life yesterday, today you're been laid to mother earth. my bro I just wish you can wake and tell me it's all a prank because we have many things to achieve together, Ichie I'm sorry that yesterday when unknown gunmen attacked us I couldn't do anything.

"We have survived many things together and they choose to take you away from me, your traditional marriage is coming up next tomorrow which is 7th and we have planned on how to shut down as usual but they came yesterday and took your life forcefully. What more can I say to a brother and friend like you at this point if not farewell. Turnfire I'll choose you over and over and over again because you're too good to be a human.Rest well my brother till we meet to part no more. I love you bro forever,"

South East leaders and traditional rulers are not helping matters at all... Forget all their media talks.

Take drastic action with any foolish miscreant who's not a security personnel handling a gun... Kill them immediately, no need for explanation.

That way, this nonsense killing will stop.

Oh No!

Your home town in Ogun State is now the unmovable headquarter of skull mining and body parts distribution, you are not concerned about that, but na wetin dey go on for far away Anambra be your major concern.

Sensitize your people to stop skull mining business, just as we are doing over here in the South East and South South region.

Who told you l am from south west...

Ur papa or ur mama

Giddygiddy says we shouldn't talk.

Anambra is getting hot.. this festive season over 20 young men have been killed..

From akokwa to umunze umuoji down to ukpor Nnewi south..

Kidnapping na on a daily

A cousin was kidnap right in front of army barracks onitsha.. only to be released after torture because he was the wrong target.. cleared his account

This is happening on daily..

And some bingos are coming online to make east look Eldorado.. truth is kidnapping is daily on the rise..

They beat the human .. shooot anyhow.. clear your account via mobile ,, delaying for sometime and free you.

Prove stubborn.. the drill you collect ransome and clear your account.. then shoot you.,

Look fresh.. dem go kidnApp you life..


East is on fire…

This Christmas too dry.…,., but we no go run from them


Bring back BAKASSI..,

Soludo must end EBUBE agu and reintroduced BAKASSI BOYS

It should be cult related,see the symbol on his neck

Nawa o

Most of this events are cult related.. though its good we are hearing this news. We will keep working to bring peace to south east. I was in idiroko border on new year day.. 5 pple died and many were sliced with axe but i didnt see all this here or anywhere. Imagine cultists walking with guns and axe and it all happened closed to police and custom barracks..

Dont be deceived.. nowhere is peaceful in Nigeria

It's sad... but don't be surprised if the deceased spent most of his life abusing Tinubu and other Yoruba leaders.

Yes, I pity him but if only flat heads concentrated most of the vile bile and curses they rain on Yorubas and instead hold their own leaders accountable, the place will be less of a shit hole.

List all the Governors from 1999- till date in the region and I can bet the worst Councillor in SW is better than their best.

Better to be a weed smoker than to be a cultist.

Maybe a family friend in action, don't be surprised if the person crying over his death actually planned it, everything na planning...if guy man marry obviously maybe e get somethings wey fit come him side like properties... that's why people don't announce themselves again,envy everywhere... probably had a dispute with someone else too,a jealous lover anything is possible no be everything be cult... what of the one wey happen here innocent dude who was just made chairman of union, the youngest amongst the papas.

They traced him till he went to buy something and gunned him down,you get money problem,if you no get problem,abeg make God help us for 9ja...May his soul rest in peace...Amen.

Igboland again!

You can tell that to your Leaders, who brought them to the EAST. We all know the game plan, but Allah will expose you all.

See how they wasted this handsome guy....

If the police was serious , these ugm would've been gone by now

sadly , anybody can take up the garment of #ugm to perpetrate evil

wow..
serious government attention to the east is strongly required.not by violence though.
it's still a better zone to North East

Yet Obi said they're Gospel preachers.

A vote for Obi is a vote for unknown gun men.

Vote Obi and get ready to bear the consequences Because unknown gunmen wi overrun your respective States
