Breaking: Gunmen Ambush Prominent Human Rights Leader And Family In Anambra
The first incident unfolded on November 27 when gunmen opened fire and hijacked Umeagbalasi’s Mitsubishi Hilux from his driver, Comrade Chike Umeh. Although the vehicle was recovered, the assailants soon seized it again, demanding a ransom of N250,000 to release the vehicle and allow the family to proceed with a funeral for Umeagbalasi’s father-in-law.
The second carjacking occurred at Ezinifite Roundabout in the Aguata local government area. The gunmen forced Umeagbalasi’s wife, Blessing, his four-year-old son Chimdiebube, the family’s 13-year-old housemaid, Somtochukwu Okafor, and the driver, Umeh, out of the vehicle at gunpoint. On that same day, the gunmen hijacked additional private vehicles, including an SUV Prado, kidnapping their occupants and terrorizing nine communities for over eight hours.
The attacks were reported to the Ekwulobia Police Division, and the Anambra State Police Command confirmed the recovery of the stolen blue Hilux. Intersociety has also issued a formal request to the Anambra State Commissioner of Police, demanding the return of the snatched vehicle and household belongings.
This brazen attack highlights the escalating threat posed by armed groups in the region and underscores the urgent need for enhanced security measures.
