Four persons have been reportedly killed after members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and the Eastern Security Network (ESN) attacked some parts of Anambra State in the early hours of Monday.

Two brothers identified as Godwin Ikechukwu Modobi and Nnajiofor Modobi were killed in Umuhu village in Ukpor, Nnewi South Local Government Area (LGA) of the state, says The PUNCH.

A source close to the family revealed that Godwin was the immediate younger brother to Nnajiofor, and was also a former youth leader in the community.

While the two others were said to have been murdered along the Udorji Road, beside St. Mary’s Church, Ozubulu, in Ekwusigo LGA.

The attackers first killed Nnajiofor right in their house, after which they blindfolded and abducted the younger brother, whom they also eventually killed close to Utuh Junction and dumped his corpse at the centre of the road, the report further revealed.

A trending video from the scenes of the incident, showed the corpse lying lonely at the centre of the deserted expressway, without a vehicle or pedestrian coming or going through the road.

Fired bullets were also seen close to the corpse, lying in a pool of blood, with bullet wounds on his chest and other parts of the body.

Efforts to get the Public Relations Officer of the state Police Command, DSP Tochukwu Ikenga, proved abortive, as he was yet to respond to his message, at the time of filing this report.

The incident is happening less than four days after a similar attack was carried out at a beer parlour in Osumenyi, where five persons were killed.
