Enugu-South/East—Months after the gruesome murder of the opposition Labour Party (LP) senatorial candidate for Enugu East District, in the Feb. 25, 2023 Presidential and National Assembly Elections, Mr. Oyibo Chukwu, security agencies are yet to apprehend the perpetrators of the heinous act.
The incident, which happened at Amechi Awkunanaw, Enugu South Local Government Area on Feb. 22, 2023, saw the gunmen kill and set ablaze the politician and five supporters, who were with him in his vehicle.
The deceased was running for the senate, with his opponents being Dr. Chimaroke Nnamani of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Princess Ada Ogbu of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
According to reports, manhunt was launched on March 6, 2023 to unmasked the killers of the senatorial candidate for Nigeria’s second major opposition party, LP, and one Nwachukwu Chikezie Christian, a farmer/breaklayer was fingered.
Prior the heinous act, it was gathered that the LP candidate had heated argument with his 29 year old former worker, Nwachukwu who it was gathered stormed his residence to demand payment of his wage in order to take care of his mother who was in the hospital.
It was further alleged that Nwachukwu, had been asking for the payment of the money since December, 2022 and went to his house again mid January but was prevented by security personnel from accessing Oyibo.
This perhaps explains why Nwachukwu who is currently on the run is being alleged to have a hand in the death of the politician.
Meanwhile, the controversies that greeted the circumstances surrounding Oyibo's death are still unresolved as security agencies continue to gather information.
The then Enugu State Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Ammani, who ordered the manhunt for the killers of the LP senatorial candidate, in a statement after visiting the scene of the attack at Ebony Paint Road and Eke-Otu both in Amechi-Awkunanaw, Enugu South Local Government Area, condemned the killings, describing it as unacceptable in a modern democracy.
In the statement issued by the State Police Public Relations Officer, Daniel Ndukwe Ekea, said that the Commissioner had also ordered the intensification of discreet investigations and manhunt of suspected killers.
Regrettably, it is over eight months now, the police are yet to produce outcome of the investigation and had not apprehended anyone.

Posted on Sep 07, 2024 at 01:48 PMEthical Leadership Centre, Enugu recognising visionary leadership is certainly a milestone towards 'making excellence the norm'. Big thanks to Chief Ben Etiaba for his tireless effort to improve our society and it's pillars.
Posted on Sep 10, 2024 at 09:51 AMYes Rangers! Our darling team was the hope of everyone across the niger to get thrilled and be happy. Rangers was the binding wire that bound the faith of the IGBO MAN together. Because the Igbos does not believe in anybody, rather the Igbo-man believes in self and God. He believes in what he can do for himself and others. Otherwise, how could a people in a war situation be cut off from outside world, they were not getting relief materials from the world bodies, no ammunition and the rest, and things got most trying and difficult. But in such horrible state of life, the IGBO-MAN produce the great bomb fondly called (Ojukwu bucket or Ogbunigwe) that destroys and kills in multiple folds, produced fighter jets which they used during the war, the Igbo-man produced his own fuel both for aviation and automotive uses. The Igbo-man started live again after the war with just twenty pounds only and excelled beyond imagination. Rangers FC was a reincarnated spirit of Igbo-man, that of course was the reason Rangers took over the football sphere in Nigeria shortly after it was founded in early 70's. Well let me come back before I go adrift Rangers International FC. I appreciate my brother Chief Ben Etiaba "Ifennia" founder Ethical Leadership Center Enugu, for the good job he is doing , especially in fishing out our men and women of substance who has paid their dues in their different callings and honouring them duly. Finally, my Congratulations goes to Dr. Joseph Ugboaja the Chief Medical Director Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital Nnewi for his milestone achievement so far at NAUTH. I also congratulate the young enterprising Director of Rangers management board chief Ugboaku for his visionary leadership and achievements. God bless you all, and let the flame keep burning!
