Onitsha Car Dealer Killed By Robbers by footreja: 12:16am On Oct 31, 2012
Chief Emeka Ekwerendu, Onitsha Car Dealer Killed By Robbers - 4 armed men on Monday robbed and killed a middle-aged car dealer, Chief Emeka Ekwerendu, at Modebe Avenue Junction in the commercial city of Onitsha, Anambra.

The Divisional Police Officer at the Central Police Station, Onitsha, Mr. Temitope Fahugbe, confirmed the incident to newsmen, adding that he had not yet received details of the incidence.

An eyewitness said the late Ekwerendu was shot by a four-man armed robbery gang at about 8:30 a.m. a few metres away from the Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Odoakpu, Onitsha.
“The gang operating in a light green Toyota Siena without a vehicle number plate trailed their victim from a primary school close to the church, after he had dropped his children at school.
“As he was driving out in his black Land Cruiser SUV, he was shot dead and an undisclosed amount of money taken from the boot of his vehicle.

“The gang armed with four Ak-47 rifle shot sporadically into the air to scare the people away as they escape he said.

I just wonder how heartless some people could be. Killing or taken another man's life that you did not create in the first place.
Re: Onitsha Car Dealer Killed By Robbers by gbadexy(m): 10:00am On Oct 31, 2012
Definitely an inside job. One of hid trusted staffs sold him out.
But why kill him rather than just take the money,probably because he would have suspected the person that was aware he carries money around before or after transactions.

I feel there's a relationship between the Arab spring and the increased gun crime in Nigeria, where do these weapons end up when the revolutions are over? Since there is a history of Arab countries supplying arms to criminals in Nigeria this is something Nigerian intelligence should be investigating.

where are these criminals getting their guns?
Re: Onitsha Car Dealer Killed By Robbers by dejiswaggs(m): 10:15am On Oct 31, 2012
this is absolutely ridiculous!
Why!
Why Will they kill a fellow man?
Even if they took his money,must they kill him?
This is so sad!

[size=15]Oh, my GOD!!! Emeka Ekwerendu was my townsman. I could remember seeing his wedding pictures back in the past. I didn't know him personally, but my elder siblings knew him.[/size]
A source told me he (Emeka) could have been assassinated, not just randomly killed.
May the Light of Christ Jesus Eternally Shine on his Soul, Amen.

those 'pple behind this robbery and killing of innocent souls, 'll never go unpunished. they 'll go down the same way. look @ the innocent children, what 'll be their tot when they get back 4rm school, that their father, who just drop them off to school is now a cold blooded man. even making their mother a widow. What a pain4 death. How much where u paid to kill an innocent soul? nothing but jealousy, enviousness, greediness and etc. but i belt, those who killed with gun, shall also go by the gun. That's my prayer 4 u all that doeth mischievously.
