The Anambra State Police Command has announced the arrest of nine individuals suspected to be involved in the killing of Justice Azuka, a member of the State House of Assembly representing Onitsha North 1 Constituency. Azuka, who was abducted on December 24, 2024, along Ugwunaobankpa Road in Inland Town, Onitsha, while heading home for Christmas, was found dead near the Second Niger Bridge in the early hours of Thursday. His body was already decomposing when discovered. In a statement on Friday, Anambra State Commissioner of Police, Nnaghe Itam, confirmed that a joint security operation, launched to rescue the kidnapped lawmaker, ultimately led to the grim discovery of his remains. According to Itam, the same day Azuka’s body was found, law enforcement officers, in collaboration with Anambra State Vigilante operatives, carried out an intelligence-driven operation that resulted in the arrest of nine suspects allegedly linked to the crime.

Very sad day in Anambra state, that particular day. The young man was kidnapped in the most violent way and murdered so sadistically by these vampires. They should have been handed over to SASA alias aka odo for the right treatment. To think that they successfully and easily took ransom of 100 m and yet murdered such a thriving fellow, whose job was to add to those making laws that would make their society better, is nauseating. Probably they are the same group or a similar group to those who kidnapped Mrs. Mrakpor in Delta state in 2024. She was lucky to be released, but lost two of her security assistants. Such cases when proven in Anambra state, must without delay, be handed over to aka odo men for treatment in more violent ways. |

This is the kind of barbaric act they want to bring down to Delta in guise of Anioma state. Thunder fire all of una unity beggars! Suddenly, the Igbos are loving us more than we love ourselves! Ashi! Kill yourselves in your region in peace I beg. |

It was over 40 days before his dead body was found by vigilantes,not even by the police. I was hoping this man was going to be found alive in a matter of days until this sad discovery. |

ruggedtimi:That is what you will use to justify the barbaric killing of an innocent man after stealing over 100 million naira from his account. Sorry sir, how much do you need to buy sense? I won't mind... |
