Pictures: How Charly Boy's Cousin, Emeka Aseme Was Murdered

Charly Boy's cousin, Emeka Aseme, a business tycoon and a hotelier was
forcefully taken away by gun wielding men during one of his visits to
his 5-Star hotel in Oguta, Imo state on 24th February. Aseme's family
managed to contact the abductors who demanded N8m ransom, which the
family paid but Emeka was not released to them.
On the 9th of March, the men who took the hotelier contacted his
younger brother and directed him to go to a community between Owerri
and Oguta called Okwonji, to find his brother.
Emeka's decomposed body was found in a bush path, with his sexual
organ , eyes and the heart plucked out.
Meanwhile, about five suspected hired assassins have been arrested in
connection with the incident. This has twisted the suspicion of many
people who had earlier thought that the killers were kidnappers.

Also one of the killers allegedly sustained serious injuries during
the shootout with the three policemen who were manning Emeka's hotel
in Oguta. The three policemen were all killed. The injured kidnapper
who ran to a hospital in Port Harcourt was requested to present his
military identity card before treatment, since he went to the hospital
on a military uniform. Unable to provide any proof that he was a
military man, the police were invited, leading to his arrest. Five of
the killers have already been arrested, and police investigations have
revealed that the supposed kidnappers were actually hired assassins.

Charly Boy reacted to his cousin's gruesome killing, saying:

"I have never seen a thing like this since I grew up in Oguta. This is
extreme barbarism. How can a man be so callous to his fellow man to
the extent of removing different parts of his body until he finally
gave up? This is unheard of. What is this country turning to? What era
is this?  As far as I know, no evil doer will go unpunished. Every
evil committed by man to man must surely be redressed, if not now,
certainly later, if not by man, then by God, for the victory of evil
over good is temporary. We are waiting for the outcome of police
investigation. After then, we will take the campaign to Oguta. We must
agitate for peace. The peace that has eluded us must be returned. We
are not known for this."
