ONITSHA— As the menace of gunmen continued unabated in various parts of the South-East geopolitical zone, tears flowed freely yesterday at Umutu Autonomous community, Lokpaukwu-Umuchieze in Umunneochi Local Government Area of Abia State as the headless body of Chief Clement Umeh, Catechist of St. Clement’s Catholic Church, Lokpaukwu, was buried.


The late Umeh, according to sources, was beheaded by about 20 gunmen that invaded his home in the village last Sunday.

The sources said the gunmen had on arrival dragged the catechist outside from his parlour, tied his hands, beheaded him, set his house ablaze and made away with his head.


At press time, there was no clue as to what prompted the gunmen to murder him in such a manner.

Confirming the incident and his burial, President-General of Umutu Autonomous Community, Victor Emeh, told newsmen on phone that the circumstances surrounding Umeh’s murder remained a puzzle to the entire people of Umutu and beyond.


Emeh further confirmed that the police authorities were informed about the incident and they dispatched some policemen, who came and took photographs and video records of his headless body and the burnt house before his burial

Some elderly men from the area, who spoke on anonymous condition, said by their custom, any compound where such a sacrilegious incident occurred is usually regarded as a bad land, which is no longer fit for human habitation, except certain sacrifices are performed to clean the compound.

Sacrilegious activities of late have become on the increase in the South East. Every drop of blood that touches the earth cries for vengeance. We don't need any soothsayer to confirm the fact that all is not well.

Every wickedness will never go unpunished. The perpetrators of this very wicked act may think they have a reason to do that, but what they should remember is that those that will kill them tomorrow will also have their reason. No peace for the wicked.

As you mourn, remember sey, e be among one million igbos_ who would be sacrifice for the actualisation of biafra. I wish them well in their quest!

Who ever that is the architect of what is going on the SE will not end well.

Armed robbers, ritualists, kidnappers are using the chaos to perpetrate their activities in the open. Pray for the East.

who do we blame for this? let us blame "we" the youth because we don't have sense

May his soul rest in peace.

I hope what many of you are witnessing in the SE would touch your heart and make you realise you cannot buy into a hate programme.

It inevitably comes back to haunt you and yours.

Rest in peace Padre. The perpetrator of this despicable act will never go unpunished. I leave it all to God.

Na Fulani and DSS


According to ipob terrorists on Nairaland

If this menace is not handled headlong i doubt we will have a home.

No longer DSS?
Who do you think that IPOB should employ for it's terror wing? Those prisoners they released, they will work for IPOB.

No one is taking advantage of IPOB. IPOB is a terrorist group.
Beheading is among their manifesto.
See Nnamdi Kanu telling his followers that he will go to Abuja and bring the head of Buhari and his supporters hailing him.
