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.
Responding to Daily Post enquiry, Ebuka said: “He was kidnapped on
Friday along Geneva Hotel road. I don’t know exact point where his body was
found.”

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.
“If such a barbaric outing can take place in the capital city of
the state, without any intelligence as regard to hunting the perpetrators of
this crime down, then I can confidently tell you that no person is safe down
there. Not even his (Soludo’s) aides or all these House of Assembly members
that (are) dubiously playing to the gallery.”
Also, Mr Naeche
Okoye, who described the deceased as his younger brother, bade him farewell.
He said: “Ifeanyi my junior brother continue resting in peace till we meet to
part no more Amen… Awgbu Ebenese Lost one of his honest sons, very painful.”

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.
“It’s a pure case of murder and is still under investigation. We
urge the witnesses where the dead body was found to volunteer information that
will support the ongoing investigation.
“Preliminary information
shows that it could be cult-related as there were marks of axe cuts on the
deceased body. Meanwhile, the body has been recovered and deposited in the
morgue,” he said.
