Suspected cultists on Friday afternoon killed a man identified as Nonso in Awka, the Anambra State Capital.

Nonso the third son in a family of three sons is said to have lost two of his brothers earlier in similar incidences attributed to cultism.

A source said Nonso was killed in broad daylight on Friday afternoon near Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital, NAUTH, which is popularly known as Amaku.

According to a close family source, Nonso’s killing is linked to the murder of his younger brother, Buchi, who was felled three months ago around MacDon Eatery.

Their eldest brother had also met a brutal end in a previous attack the source said. This chain of incidents leaves their mother without a child.

Awka has recently been a hotbed for cult-related killings, with 16 recently killed in Nibo and seven more in the Ifite Awka area.

Despite repeated assurances from law enforcement agencies, the bloodshed persists.

Anambra State Police Commissioner, Nnaghe Obono Itam, has condemned the latest killing, promising a thorough investigation.

“We will leave no stone unturned in apprehending the perpetrators and bringing them to justice,” he said.

Meanwhile, the Ezinano Awka Community, led by Ozo Jeff Nweke, on Friday, placed a N10 million bounty on Nibo Massacre perpetrators and warned cultists to steer clear of Awka and its environs.
