“Immediately he fell, all the five boys started shooting at him simultaneously, riddling his body with bullets, before they walked away.”
Another source, a food vendor at the junction told DailyPost that the victim, Agozie, who he described as a very crazy youth in the area was in his shop about an hour ago, where he ate food before leaving and was felled less than an hour after.
The killing of the youth had caused a stir at the junction as traders, motorists scampered in all directions, while the assailants, five in number, tucked their pistol into their pockets and walked away without any mobility, and with their faces not hooded.

Attempts to get a reaction over the identity of the killers from the Anambra State Police Command’s Public Relations Officer, DSP Toochukwu Ikenga proved abortive.
