Vicious gunmen have abducted and killed two brothers in Anambra, killing them and dumping their bodies in the victims’ car trunk, which they thereafter abandoned along Enugu-Onitsha Expressway.

The two corpses were earlier thought to be those of a husband and wife but a Facebook post by prominent Anambra citizen, Dr. Uche Nworah, revealed otherwise.

In the post made yesterday, Monday, January 29, 2024, Dr. Nworah, immediate past MD/CEO of Anambra Broadcasting Service (ABS), wrote:

“It turns out that the two copses dumped inside the trunk of a car near Tempo mills Umunya, Anambra state, along the Enugu-Onitsha expressway last week are those of these two brothers.

“Speculations are rife that they were victims of brutal kidnapping. They had allegedly attended a church program somewhere along Oguta road Onitsha but their corpses were later discovered at Umunya inside the trunk of their car.

“When the news first broke on the internet last week and the video was circulated, it was alleged that the corpses were those of a husband and his wife.

“Commenting on the sad development on Facebook, an Aguleri-based Anglican priest, Venerable Emmanuel Ik Onovo, said; “They are my two sons in Anglican Children's Ministry (ACM) Omogba Onitsha years back. I called their parents yesterday to offer them prayers. Onyema and Nonso may your souls rest in peace”.”
