Suspected killers of Anambra lawmaker, Okechukwu Okoye have reportedly ordered politicians in the state to immediately withdraw soldiers of the Nigerian Army from 'Biafra Land' within 48 hours.

The 48-hour ultimatum was said to have been contained in a letter found beside the head of the murdered lawmaker.

SaharaReporters had reported that Okoye, who represented Aguata State Constituency 1 in the Anambra House of Assembly, was beheaded by gunmen who abducted him on May 15, alongside his driver.

His head was on Saturday spotted in Nnobi, Idemili South Local Government Area (LGA) of the state with a note from his killers.

FIJ reported that a video it obtained shows Okoye’s head placed on a road as motorists pass by.

According to the report, the rest of his body was not visible in the two-minute clip.

The discovery of his head was accompanied by warning messages signed by ‘Unknown Gunmen’.

One of them read, “We give the politicians 48 hours to withdraw all the soldiers in Biafra land or face our wrath or consequences [sic]. Signed, Unknown Gunmen.”

Anambra State Command of the Nigeria Police Force had confirmed the said message found on the scene.

The Command's spokesman, Tochukwu Ikenga, told the newspaper that the state Commissioner of Police, Echeng Echeng, had promised that the perpetrators would be apprehended.

Whichever people that are attacking Anambra state will meet their Waterloo sooner than later. Light must surely overcome darkness

But why can’t Buhari release Nnamdi Kanu to eliminate the reason they are holding unto for this carnage?

Release Nnamdi Kanu and if a single killing happens again, then you go after those people as common criminals and blast their brains off their head.

Oh! I forgot that Buhari’s powers of prerogative of mercy is only exercised on corrupt people and petty thieves, and not on someone whose release can save an entire region from carnage.

To withdraw soldiers so that they can finish the rest of their people. Imagine that?

Just like they cheered on while sorrow befalls the house of the victims, sorrow and pain will become a regular visitor in their household.

Your contribution on Nairaland has always been on point. I don't know you personally, but I love your commentary whenever I read them..

This is a time for everyone in Igbo land to cover their face with shame and go into serious retrospective mode, that is if they still have anything call thinking cap.

Igbos are lovely people whom I know have excesses just like the yoruba people of Nigeria but not this killing and maiming of innocent citizens and I hold everyone hailing Nnamdi Kanu responsible including Nairaland e-rats.
