A young man, whose name was given as Ifeanyi, who was allegedly kidnapped on Friday last week, just two days to Christmas, has been found dead.
The man, said to be an indigene of Awgu, a community in Orumba North Local Government Area of Anambra State, was abducted at Okpuno, close to Geneva Hotel.
Meanwhile, a source, Mr Ebuka Okoye, who took to his Facebook page, revealed that the body of the abducted man was found on Christmas day in Awka.
Earlier, he had posted a picture of the deceased on his Facebook wall, with a write up saying: “One death too many!!! This sweet soul was kidnapped in the heart of the state capital on Friday, and just yesterday evening, his lifeless body was seen by the roadside.”
Ebuka had blamed the level of insecurity in Anambra State on Governor Chukwuma Soludo, who he said had shown incompetence in the face of all the killings.
Meanwhile, the state police command has confirmed the death of Ifeanyi. The state police command’s spokesperson, DSP Toochukwu Ikenga denied that it was a case of kidnap. He said the matter was being investigated.
