The spiritual leader of the Igbo nation and Ogilisi Igbo, Chief Rommy Ezeonwuka has placed a curse on those who carried out the recent attack on the convoy of the Senator representing Anambra South Senatorial zone, Senator Ifeamyi Ubah.
Ezeonwuka said that the gods of Igboland and spirits of the ancestors would surely hunt down the assassins that carried out the dastardly act which took place at Nkwo Enugwu-Ukwu in Njikoka Local Government Area of Anambra state.
He also placed the same curse on kidnappers, assassins and other criminals who have been terrorizing people in various parts of Igbo land.
In a press release Ezeonwuka vehemently condemned the assassination attempt, described it as a barbaric act which is never acceptable to humanity in general and in Igbo land in particular.
“Let me join million of well meaning Nigerians in condemning the assassination attempt made against Senator Ifeanyi Ubah at Nkwo Enugwu Ukwu by armed men.
“It resulted in the sudden and unnatural deaths of Senator Ubah’s personal assistants, security aides and the Onowu of Nri community who was hit by the assassins’ bullet when he came to drop off his visitor”.
The All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) BOT member warned those who have taken to killing their fellow Igbo brothers as their job should get ready to face more catastrophic way of dead.
“Vultures shall eat up their dead bodies because God and nature made it clear that those who kill will die in a more horrible manner,” said Ezeonwuka.
“Those killing others with hope to go scot free are deceiving themselves because security agents will go after them.
“The wrath of God who created humanity and nature are after them too, just as the wrath of gods of the land and the spirit of the ancestors are equally after them.
“The high rate of killings in Igboland by Ndigbo themselves has turned Ndigbo into a laughing stock to the outside world.
“The respect that Ndigbo command from the outside world as people who love themselves, people who are their brothers’ keepers, people who are educated and hardworking is being eroded by negative activities of killings being perpetrated by violent criminals,” said Ezeonwuka.
The spiritual leader however commiserated with the families of the victims of the attack, wishing them peaceful rest and called on security agents to work hard and fish out the attackers and deal with them according to the rule of law.
