Deadly Shootings In Ifite Awka, Anambra, Many Killed by BadNews(op): 12:31pm On Oct 24, 2024
A shooting spree in Awka, Anambra State capital on Thursday morning, has claimed several lives, sources have hinted DAILY POST.

One of the sources, a student, said the shooting happened in Ifite Awka, at approximately 9:15 a.m., leaving several people dead.

Ifite Awka is dominated mostly by students of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka. The source said the shooting may not be unconnected to cultism.

Last Sunday, no fewer than 12 people were gunned down in a cult-related shooting in Nibo, a town close to Awka.

Another source said Thursday’s shooting happened at Ifite, close to the back gate of Unizik, Awka, not far away from Amansea Road.

One of the sources said, “Gunmen just shot a guy a few minutes ago at Ifite, Awka. He’s lying lifeless.”

Another eyewitness, a lecturer, said she witnessed seven lifeless bodies in the area and was forced to abandon lectures and turn back while en route to school.

It is, however, not clear the actual number of victims involved in the shooting, but the State Police Public Relations Officer, Tochukwu Ikenga, who failed to confirm the incident rather said a police responding team has taken over the scene and further details will be communicated shortly.

In another press statement, Ikenga said the command has intercepted some videos and voice note of persons who planned to unleash violence on Awka.

He said: “Anambra State Police Command begins investigation on some intercepted videos and voice notes on social media space threatening violence in the state.

“The Police Command not taking those clips for granted and saddled with the responsibility of maintaining law and order shall live up to its mandate of ensuring that no person or group of persons is allowed to infringe on the fundamental human rights of others.

“Given the above, Police and Other Security Forces have intensified patrols, and improved security dominance and surveillance to enforce the law, maintain Public Order, Public Safety and other Support Services in the State.”

Some of you kids can be so delusional. Of what concern is Wole Soyinka with the killings in the East?

Do you even know your history at all? The Prof didn't start an Occultic for this purpose, he rather started it to fight oppressors. Go read your history, kid.

Kidnappers
Baby factory abomination
Drug Barons

Na wao! The rate of killing is out of hand and a state of emergency should be declared asap. Are these killers humans or animals and how long will this go on? At this point, there is little security officials can do if we don't help ourselves. Parents, siblings and neighbours have a lot to do so these miscreants causing this mayem can be fished out. Enough is enough!

It's like Anambra is fighting hard to overtake Edo state in cultism.

Ifite is where Unizik's busiest gate is. It's where 99% of lodges in perm site are situated. So it's obviously a cult related killing.

I honestly do not know what youths see in cultism in this 2024 that's making them join. Hundreds die every year, yet more keep joining. What exactly are they gaining from it?

Soludo needs to step in and clean up this mess. If they allow these useless cultists, they will turn the entire state into something unfathomable.

In every ill that happens, most blame the leaders!

While in reality, most of the ills are caused by the failure of the home!
