Obinna Chigozie Onuoha alias Nwa Pastor
A 20-year-old self-confessed member of Aye confraternity, Obinna
Chigozie Onuoha alias Nwa Pastor, who was arrested by police in Imo
State, has revealed that his members were responsible for the murder of a
graduate of the Imo State University last August, Vanguard reports.
It was gathered that the deceased identified as Chikabala, had gone
to complete his clearance at the university, preparatory for the
mandatory one-year National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, programme when he
was attacked by suspected cultists in front of the school gate. His
assailants reportedly shot him thrice and left him dead in a pool of
blood.
Spokesman for the Imo State Police Command, Deputy Superintendent
Andrew Ekwerem confirmed the incident and said the suspect was arrested
at a beach in Mechanic Village, Nekede, in Owerri West Local Government
Area.
He added that Onuoha had been on the command’s wanted list for robbery, murder and cultism.
In his confessional statement, Onuoha said:
“I am a member of Aye cult group. We attack rival cultists
anywhere, any day and any time. Since I joined the cult group, I have
killed three persons. But I don’t attack rival cultists alone. Our
members walk in group. “Among those we have killed was Chibuike. I was
the one that shot him at Douglas Road, Owerri.
He was a
member of a rival cult group. Another victim was Zaiki, who sold CD
plates. I fired the shot that killed him at Ikenegbu Road. There was
also a motorcyclist we killed at Mbaise Road.
“My members were responsible for the murder of Chikalaba in front
of IMSU gate. We were five that carried out that attack. Their names are
Shiba, Nonso, Freedom and Brano. “Other members of our group are Black
Fela, Owite, Pharoah and Ludacris. We kill rival group at sight because
if we don’t, they will kill us.”
The Command spokesman disclosed that over 25 other suspects, who
were involved in separate criminal acts, were arrested alongside Onuoha.
Ekwerem explained that the arrest was “in line with Imo State Police
Command’s Operation Nkpochapu Phase II (wipe out criminals).
Some of the arrested suspects have been charged to court, while others are still undergoing thorough investigation.”
