Yet to be identified gunmen who kidnapped a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC in Rivers State, Mr. Samuel Wanjoku have killed him.
The maggot-infested and bullet-ridden corpse of Mr.Samuel Wanjoku was discovered by security agents inside the forest between Omuanwa and Ubima, Ikwerre LGA of the state.
Suanu’s Blog gathered that the deceased was kidnapped along Ubima/Omuanwa Road in Ikwerre Local Government Area. But no contact was established with his family until his corpse was discovered yesterday. This aligns with the assertions by his friends and family members that the killing was politically motivated and not a mere kidnap incident.
It may interest you to note that He was a younger brother to Hon.Chikere Byke Wanjoku who currently represents Ikwerre State Constituency in the Rivers State House of Assembly under the platform of the APC.
Until his untimely death, Mr.Samuel Wanjoku was the Organizing Secretary of APC in Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State.
He left behind a wife and three children.
Meanwhile, the whereabouts of one Moses Ogu who the late Wanjoku was kidnapped alongside is still unknown.
Suanu’s Blog recalls that ahead of the 2019 elections, Rivers State have continued to witness heightened insecurity with daily killings including beheadings and political intolerance and attacks during rallies by political parties.
