In a statement, Anambra State Police Command Public Relations Officer, Mr Haruna Mohamed said that details of the killing “are still sketchy but investigation has commenced to ascertain circumstances surrounding the incident and bring perpetrators to Justice”.

Preliminary Investigation revealed that the victim was shot at close rnage by four armed men who escaped in a pickup van. Twenty five expended 7.6 mm ammunition were recovered by the police at the murder scene.
