No fewer than 18 people were killed in coordinated attacks across several communities in the Orsu Local Government Area of Imo State on Sunday. The killings occurred in Umukabia, Eziawa, lhitte Nasa, Umuhu, Amaoku, and Amaebe. Victims were left with deep machete wounds, sparking fear and outrage among locals. A former Chairman of the Nigerian Human Rights Commission, Prof. Chidi Odinkalu, who hails from Orsu, brought attention to the development via his X account on Monday. It was gathered that the tragedy followed the annual masquerade festival celebrated in Umuhu, Amaoku, Amaebe, and neighbouring communities. After the festivities, some locals, including holiday returnees, gathered at a drinking joint. Passers-by later discovered all nine people in the joint, including customers and attendants, lying in pools of blood with machete wounds. "Everybody in the joint, all nine people were discovered dead, either customers or attendants, they had been butchered with deep machete cuts all over. "We were just a few blocks away from there and nobody heard any sound of gunshot or argument. We suspect that members of the Indigenous People of Biafra and Eastern Security Network that were behind this." He added that three corpses were discovered in Umukabia, consisting of family members, five corpses in Eziawa village, and another five corpses in hitte Nasa, all with machete cuts on the same day. "I can't explain how these incidents happened and nobody noticed. Three people in Umukabia, five in Ezinwa, and another five in hitte Nasa villages and nobody saw the killers come in nor when leaving. Orsu lost 18 promising lives in one day.
