Gunmen executed a deadly ambush during a peaceful meeting of Ebonyi indigenes, sparking national outrage over the Ogboji killings incident.
Eyewitnesses confirmed that the Ogboji killings left eleven Ebonyi indigenes dead, with several others badly wounded and traumatized.
Survivor Onuoha Godwin recounted the horror, confirming the Ogboji killings began when armed men stormed their monthly gathering.
Godwin, now hospitalized with gunshot wounds, described the moment the attackers opened fire, causing instant panic and chaos.
The gunmen asked for Augustine Odogwu by name, making it clear the Ogboji killings were premeditated and targeted.
Godwin said the group mistook the attackers for police before they began executing members without any provocation or warning.
“They demanded Augustine’s identity, then executed him and shot me again,” Godwin recounted, reliving the brutality of the anambra Ogboji killings.
The victims belonged to the Ebonyi State Welfare Association, which regularly meets in Ogboji to discuss community welfare issues.
This massacre raises questions about security enforcement and intelligence lapses surrounding such large public gatherings in volatile areas.
Authorities must investigate the Ogboji killings urgently and hold the attackers accountable for their horrific, calculated violence.
