Gunmen suspected to be cultists have beheaded the President of the Omoku Youth Federation in Ogba-Egbema-Ndoni Local Government Area of Rivers State, Ifeanyi Azuazu, and shot dead his personal aide, Chigozie Oluwu. The incident occurred around 6 pm on Thursday when about seven assailants stormed a popular drinking spot along Ogolo Street, off Palace Road in Omoku town. Sources said the attackers, who arrived in two vehicles, confronted the Youth President and ordered him into a car. His aide, Oluwu, attempted to intervene and was immediately shot dead. The gunmen then abducted Azuazu and drove him to an unknown location. The attack caused panic among residents and passersby, with many fleeing for safety while business owners hurriedly closed their shops. A viral video showed local youths assisting the police and other security personnel in placing Oluwu’s body into an open patrol van. A local vigilante group later discovered the headless body of Azuazu in the bush on Friday afternoon.
