An Abuja-based veterinary doctor and former chairman of the Nigerian Veterinary Medical Association (NVMA),Federal Capital Territory (FCT) chapter, Dr. Ifeanyi Ogbu has been reportedly murdered in Kubwa, Abuja,the Federal Capital Territory(FCT).
Reports said armed men allegedly stormed his residence in Kubwa and abducted him along with his three children.
While the nursing wife and other family members looked up for their rescue,the doctor’s body was later reportedly found dumped by the roadside with his children missing.
The incident comes on the heels of the tragic death of Somtochukwu Maduagwu, a news anchor with Arise TV, who was recently murdered in an armed robbery attack at her Katampe residence in Abuja.
Ogbu’s alleged murder has sparked an outpouring of grief and outrage as colleagues described his death as “a great loss” and a painful reminder of the insecurity that continues to affect families and communities in Nigeria.
The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command’s Spokesperson, Superintendent of Police (SP),Josephine Adeh said the command was yet to receive a report of the incident.
She,however,promised to get back to our reporter as soon as she had information on the matter.
