Anambra Security Operatives, Agunechemba has continued to make progress in its bid to rid this State of criminal elements.
This time, operation Udo ga Achi made the news in Anambra East Local Government Area of Anambra State where they reportedly arrested two some suspects involved in a gruesome case of ritual killing and human parts dealing in Eziagulu Village, Aguleri.
The arrests were reportedly made on Sunday, June 15, 2025, following a tip-off and subsequent intelligence-led operation by the local security team. Two of the arrested suspects, identified as Ifeanyi Ogbanje and Emeka Ekwealor, confessed to the brutal murder of one Mr. Samuel, a commercial motorcyclist from Ivite Aguleri, whom they also butchered, collected some of his body parts and dumped the remaining parts in a river.
This was corroborated by some videos of the interrogations of the suspects, currently trending on social media.
According to confessions made by the suspects during interrogation, the heinous act was orchestrated by one Chief Chinaka Udealor, the alleged kingpin of the syndicate, who is currently at large. Another accomplice, identified as Marcel Bad, is also said to be on the run.
Narrating the incident, Ifeanyi Ogbanje disclosed that the victim, Samuel (the Okada rider), was lured to Chinaka’s residence when they called him on phone and pretendedly invited him to come and join them and to have a drink in a friendly gathering at the Chinaka’s parlour.
He said immediately Samuel the Okada rider arrived there with his bike, they ambushed him. According to him, Chinaka stabbed him on the chest immediately, while him himself shot him on the head with a Pump Action gun belonging to Chinaka, and he died instantly, while they joyfully began to butcher him and dismember his body.
“We cut off his hands and legs and threw his body into the river,” Ogbanje stated, revealing that he received ₦40,000 as his own share for his role in the killing.
The second suspect, Emeka Ekwealor, corroborated Ogbanje’s confession, admitting to being part of the act. The suspects further revealed that their gang and acts were sealed with an oath-taking ritual conducted by a native doctor identified as Udeanyinya Ubanagu, to bind their silence and loyalty to the syndicate.
He further hinted that they also gave the victim’s motorcycle to someone else, who changed the tank and some other parts of the bike to prevent its identification.
The suspects also led the Udo Ga-Achi security team to the scene of the crime — the parlour of Chinaka Udealor’s house — where the murder was said to have occurred, even as efforts are still currently ongoing to apprehend the fleeing gang members and bring all involved to justice.
Howbeit, while the alleged kingpin of the syndicate, Chief Chinaka Udealor, and the native doctor who conducted the oath-taking ritual for the gang members are still on the run now; sources have it that the arrested suspects are currently in the security custody of the Anambra East Unit of Operation Udo Ga-Achị and are expected to be handed over to the relevant authorities for further investigation and prosecution.
