Igbo Couple Mr And Mrs Ngwu Ogbodo Macheted To Death In Front Of Their Kids In Katsina

A Source who spoke on a very strict condition of anonymity reports
that the assassins clubbed the couple and butchered them with a
machete before shooting them at point blank. The couple were killed in
the presence of their children. On June 29, 2015 an Igbo business man,
Chijoke Ngwu Ogbodo, a native of Nkanu LGA, Enugu State was gruesomely
murdered along with his wife in Katsina by gunmen suspected to be
Fulani herds men.

The Igbo community in Katsina is said to have been thrown into deep
mourning and fear as a result of the killings. The killing of Ngwo
Ogbodo and wife appears one in a series of targeted attacks on the
Igbo population in living Katsina.

The bodies of the couple have been removed from their home located
along the Katsina Bypass and deposited at the katsina mortuary. Mr
Ogbodo is the manufacturer of the popular Sir Benjik Pure Water.

Leaders within the Igbo community have expressed little confidence in
the police ability to fish out the killers. Previous attacks and
premeditated killings of the Igbo have gone unresolved. —News24
