Abia Breaking News, gathered that the suspects who
confessed to the crime narrated how the attack was planned
and hatched. In his statement, MACDONALD who is present
capon of Burkina Faso cultgroup in MOUAU, disclosed that the
attack was planned in a hotel along Ikot-Ekpene road, via
Umudike, where pledged to supply the gun to be used for the
attack and a sum of six thousand Naira (N6,000) for logistics,
but was only able to supply the gun. He, however, stated that
he did not take part in the attack.
In his own contribution,AWOM(a.k.a Arch Angel) stated that
the attack was a reprisal meant to avenge the death of Collins
Agwu Kalu (a.k.a Biggy), a 400 level student of the depertment
of Micro Biology of ABSU and the then leader of Burkina Faso
(BF) in ABSU who was killed allegedly by members of maphite
on 22nd February,2016.
He narrated that he was present at the meeting where the
attack was planned, and that he played the role of gate keeper
at the Lodge during the attack. He emphasized that he was to
watch the entrance of the lodge and alert the attackers if
security agents are approaching the venue.
Obi (a.k.a Small Body) an indigene of Uturu and member of
BF is not a student, but “Okirika” seller in Port Harcourt,
Rivers State. He equally confessed to have taken part in the
planning and execution of the dastardly act. He stated that he
partook in the shooting and actual beheading of their victims.
He further stated that CHIGOZIRIM the third victim was also
shot but was not beheaded because he claimed he was a
member of Vikings cult group and not Maphite. Obi also
disclosed that himself and AWOM with others still at large
partook in the dropping of the served head at the frontage of
the University Campus gate.
EBERENDU, a.k.a Star Boy, aged 23 years, is a final year
Accounting student of ABSU who succeeded Biggy as BF
No.1. He admitted that he was present on 22nd February,
2016 when BF and Maphites had a shootout that led to the
death of Biggy. He said that after his death, the mantle of
leadership fell on him. He also disclosed that series of
meetings were held in Olokoro in Umuahia South LGA, Abia
state and Owerri, Imo state where the plots to avenge the
death of Biggy were concluded and gave graphic details of
how that plot was executed. He confessed that he was part of
the planning and the beheading of the two (2) Maphites
members on 12th march, 2016.
At this juncture, the command would want to remind
members of various Cult groups and other criminal gangs
operating in the state that the long arm of the law will always
catch up with them no matter how long the crime was
committed. The Command is assuring members of the public
of their continued safty and urge them to always cooperate
with security agencies in the provision of useful information
that would help in tracking down criminals in their midst, as
security is collective responsibility.
