Tragedy struck in Anambra State as kidnappers reportedly killed a banker, Ifeoma, despite receiving ransom from her family.
Ifeoma, who was abducted in Onitsha, was later found dead near Ideani junction along the Nnobi-Alor road, where her body was dumped by the assailants.
Human rights activist Harrison Gwamnishi shared the devastating news in a Facebook post, along with a photo of the victim’s body at the scene.
He stated that, “Ifeoma, a banker, was kidnapped in Anambra State. Despite her family paying the ransom, the kidnappers killed her and abandoned her body near Ideani junction along Nnobi-Alor road. Lives are being lost daily, and it’s heartbreaking that nothing significant is being done to stop these killings. WHO IS NEXT? If we remain silent, this menace might affect us all.”
The Anambra State Police Command confirmed the discovery. Police spokesperson Tochukwu Ikenga stated that the corpse had been recovered and investigations were ongoing to determine the circumstances surrounding the tragic incident.
