Human rights activist and supporter of President Muhammadu Buhari, Mr Kenechukwu Okeke has been k*lled in Anambra State, DailyPost is reporting.
Okeke was said to have been m*cheted by his att*ckers numbering seven. It is reported that the controversial activist who had dr*gged many celebrities and media outfits, including CNN to court for defaming President Muhammadu Buhari and his administration was k*lled in Nkpor, near Onitsha, Anambra State, in the presence of his wife, Mrs Blessing Odinakachi Okeke and his little daughter.
Okeke’s wife who made the allegations said: “Kenechukwu Okeke was k*lled by his tenant. The Tenant, Chiadiobi, was living in our house, but when he packed out without our knowledge and asked to be given two months of his rent that he left, we told him he should have notified us that he was packing out.
“My husband was not around the day he came but I told him he packed out of the house without our knowledge and should not be given back any money. He thr*atened to deal with us, saying he will teach my husband a lesson. I called my husband and told him what the boy said and that he should not come to confront him, since they say he is a bad boy.
My husband later reported the matter to the DSS and to the police, and he was made to write an undertaking, but he was still coming to terrorize us. Sometimes he will come to our house and break open the gate and come in and pick whatever he wants to pick.
One day, he came to our house and my husband confronted him, without knowing that he had many boys with him downstairs, and before my husband could do anything, they m*cheted him, and the fuel we wanted to pour into our gen, they poured it on him and l*t him up, and that was how my husband d*ed.”
When Daily Post reached out to the Anambra State Police Command, the spokesperson of the Command, DSP Toochukwu Ikenganyia, said that the police is aware of the matter.
