“Some people even said that one of the persons who was killed was a security guard who works with APGA chairman.”
The source also said the killing was not unconnected with the persistent cult clashes in the state capital.
Attempt to confirm the death of the persons and the circumstances of their death from the Anambra State Police Command was not successful as the Command’s Police Public Relations Officer, Tochukwu Ikenga, could not be reached as at press time.
