Gunmen have killed Victor Ijioma, the traditional ruler of Orsu Obodo in Oguta LGA, Imo state.

TheCable understands that the monarch was attacked on Thursday at Umuamaka junction in Izombe town.

Ijioma was said to have been shot inside his car, after which his body was set ablaze.

“The Eze Igwe of Orsu Obodo was accosted while he was driving at Umuamaka junction in the afternoon,” a source said.

“They shot him and set him ablaze inside his car and immediately zoomed off.

“Soldiers and other security operatives, as I speak, are patrolling all the nooks and crannies of the village in search of the assailants.

“For this reason, the community is gradually being deserted as many have run away for fear of the unknown.”

When contacted, Henry Okoye, Imo police spokesperson, said he had not yet been briefed about the killing.

The incident is the latest in a series of attacks on traditional rulers in Imo state.

Ipob OBI why

The Fulani rule in Imo through uzodinma is going on. The forth becoming the first is yielding it's dividends

Doings.......

If you kill animal that is not yours there is consequences, not to talk of human being that you can't create, the blood of the person you kill is following you spiritually and forever.

Even a warfront Ukraine is more orderly and peaceful than Nigeria.

Nigeria can never ever develope because the mindset of the average citizen is archaic.

An academically uneducated White man mentality is more refined than the educated Nigerians..

Development starts with the perception of things in our minds.

Finally, human development is what will give birth to all other basic development.

RoleB:
This nation is going to where I no know.

Why drag the rest of the nation into something that happend in the east?

Yet you want Peter Obi that was 3rd to become first

The monsters these people are supporting are gradually swallowing them. Very soon nobody will be able to visit their villages again and I think by then they will know the havoc they have created for themselves. How could u be killing ur eminent personalities and termed it fighting government. They are setting their house on fire because they want to kill small rat. Who loses at the end. Wisdom is the principal thing indeed.

Southeast...!

This is the new order!

Yesterday, it was a young man shot dead in broad daylight and then beheaded! Now, another gruesome killing!

Such incidents tell me one thing... Y'all hate one another so much!!!

NasoLifeBe!!!

Another, Mr Hopeless. Supporter down.

Why are u guys wicked like this. So Uzodinma the governor is the one killing his citizens and eminent personalities in his state. You are blind to the truth and think others will reason along with u. We all know the truth that those doing this are Igbos, killing just to paint the government red. One by one by God. Everyone is building their region, you guys are destroying ur own thinking you are fighting for justice. Come back in the next ten years and see the havoc you guys are supporting.

Unfortunately how we don't have regards for lives anymore. I won't be surprised if they were paid only 50k for this dastardly act.

Crime is never wicked until it's at your doorstep.

We are becoming a failed state.

How can someone with his cerebral intact just wake up and killed his fellow human being? Some people are just heartless

Hopeless Uzodimma has brought Deaths, Violence and Destructions upon the good people of IMO state, ever since this Supreme Court governor can into power through the back door of the elections there ha been no Peace in IMO state.
He’s the most hated governor in this country.
To think that he’s even campaigning for a second term baffles me.

blood suckers

You people constant.hatred over igbos will always make you type rubbish as if you cares about them.
So, your own state is safe abi? Olodo

Koralords:

That’s the problem of you people,na wetin you see talk inside wetin happen be this you will not Condemn the killings it’s uzodimma that’s your brother,when this killing started you guys where gaming ugm

Watch them blame it on Fulani or Federal government

Foolish people, keep killing yourself, when will you have sense and follow our path in ngwaland.

Yeah... It can never be the fault of Southeasterners... It just has to be Fulanis, Hausa, Yoruba or Mercenaries from Libya.


No Igbo man can ever hate anyone or hurt a fly!

If you fail to stand for what is right, you will fall for the wrong reasons.

Rip!

From Monday 29th Ibo will start blaming killings in Alaibo on Mazi Bola Ahmed Tinubu

Those who kill humans like this are vampires and should be treated as vampires.There is no justification to take innocent life you can not create May GOD Almighty hunt you killers down TO HELL IFSHA
