The church in question was built from drug money. As reported, this has nothing to do with Boko Haram and those who are trying to divert attention to the main focus of investigation need to hold their lies, hypes and inneudoes because such will not work. Ozubulu people, working with other investigative agencies, will get to the bottom of this.

Boy,
this is nothing but another senseless act of violence. What
a blatant desecration of a sacred ground! This is worse than
Cain and Abel; after all, Cain did not kill more than his
own brother, and he did it tactfully, certainly not
blatantly. Imagine if the gunman/men had totally eluded
authorities, we would all be speculating "with
authority" that it must be those Boko Haram folks with
their Fulani herdsmen who came to invade the Church again!
But in reality, it's an under-the-roof imbroglio. Chei,
could people actually be this mean to fellow human-beings?
It beats me, big time.  And without blaming the victim,
shouldn't someone have thought that holding a church
service under the candlelight was not safe enough, all
things considered?
Oh
well, may all those left behind be comforted.

Blood splashed in church

Ozubulu, relative to other towns in
its environs

Analysis: Murder in God’s
house
By Stanley Ikechukwu - August 7,
2017



Ginika Enemonwu was an Mbaise
native who grew up in Ozubulu, Ekusigo LGA of Anambra state.
He was killed in far awayJohannesburg, South Africa, in
October 2013. His murder set in motion a chain of events
that led to a massacre of churchgoes in Ozubulu almost four years
later. Gunmen yesterday invaded St. Philip’s Catholic
Church, Ozubulu, Ekwusigo LocalGovernment Area of Anambra State
and opened fire on worshippers, killing at least eight
people. Worshippers who escapedsaid the gunmen, who all
communicated in Igbo, fled the scene after emptying a hail
of bullets into early morningworshippers.
The Parish Priest of St. Philip’s Catholic
Church, Jude Onwuaso, said that the attack took place at
about 6.30 a.m. during theearly morning Mass. According to
Fr. Onwuasot, an unidentified man came into the church, shot
at a man, AkunwaforIkegwuonwu, before shooting sporadically at other
worshippers

A member of the church choir, who wished to be
unnamed who witnessed the incident, said that the church was
dark asthere was no light. She said that the generating
set suddenly developed a fault; so, the mass proceeded with
thecongregation using candles.
According to her, the gunman, after the shooting,
jumped into a waiting car with a
driver.
Following the massacre, the bodies of the dead, and
those who were injured were taken to the Nnamdi Azikiwe
UniversityTeaching Hospital, Nnewi, and all medical personnel
who were attending Sunday morning mass at the hospital
chapel werepressed into service at the hospital’s casualty
unit for surgery.
Police reaction
Speaking in Awka, the Anambra state Commissioner of
Police, Garba Umar, confirmed that a lone gunman killed
eightworshippers and injured 18 others in the early
morning attack. According to Umar, preliminary
investigations showed that theattack was carried out by a native
of the area.
“From our findings, it is very
clear that the person who carried the attack must be an
indigene of the area.
“We gathered that worshippers for 6 o’clock
Sunday mass at St. Philip Ozobulu were in the service when a
gunman dressedin black attire covering his face with a cap
entered the church and moved straight to a particular
direction and opened fire.
“The man after shooting at his targeted victims
still went on a shooting spree, killing and wounding other
worshippers,” Umarsaid.
Although no arrest had been made as
of the time of filing this report, the police have already
learned that the attack followeda quarrel between two natives of
Ozubulu residing overseas, and Mr. Umar assured that the
police were on top of thesituation.
A drug dealing bishop
According to two residents of Ozubulu who insisted
on anonymity before speaking with Daily Times, the roots of
yesterday’smassacre were planted four years ago in South
Africa, when an indigene of Ozubulu nicknamed “Bishop”,
based in SouthAfrica for many years, is alleged to have killed an
indigene of Mbaise in a drug trade
dispute.
Aloysius Nnamdi Ikegwuonu, aged 35, better known by
his nickname, “Bishop”, has built a reputation as one of
the biggest
philanthropists from the town. He
has built and donated churches (including St. Philips, where
people were massacred),constructed schools, hospitals and
given scholarships. In May, Anambra Governor Willie Obiano
commissioned a 12kmroad and a bridge built by Chief Ikegwuonu (he is a
titled chief) linking Ozubulu with the neighbouring Ukpor in
Nnewi SouthLGA.
Enemonwu, , whose death caused the
bad blood, was an Mbaise native who had lived in Ozubulu.
Bishop took him to SouthAfrica for a “joint venture”
and when the proceeds of their arrangement became
significant, Bishop claimed a huge chunk
ofthe
profits, a situation which Enemonwu found
unacceptable.
Following that disagreement,
Enemonwu reported the matter to the Mbaise Union in South
Africa, who took the issue up,and began fighting for their
brother. He allegedly told the Mbaise Union of his fear that
Bishop may assassinate him, and inthe event of such an event, they
should know who to hold responsible.
Not long afterwards, he was killed, and the effort
to retaliate began. It was reported that many of Bishop’s
boys andassociates have been killed since then and also
someone else close to Bishop was murdered in a bar in
Johannesburg lastweek before the hit was carried out in
Ozubulu.
Now, the event that happened in
South Africa seems to have touched home. Some people from
Mbaise, in neighbouring ImoState, insisted that Bishop must
pay a price for the killing of their brother in South
Africa.Many prominent people and thetraditional rulers of both
communities intervened to settle the rift and sue for peace,
to no avail.
Along the line, it was believed
that the case has been settled. Then Bishop was sighted in
Ozubulu a few days ago, andinformation is believed to have
filtered to Mbaise, which possibly encouraged the gunmen to
trail him. According to sources,Bishop left town and is back in
South Africa. When the gunmen arrived at the church and did
not find him, they shot severalpeople, including Bishop’s
father, Akunwafor Ikegwuonwu, and some other worshippers. A
witness who spoke to DailyTimes said that the gunmen promised
to return if Bishop did not find a way to pay back what he
owed, along with somerestitution for their deceased
brother.
While most Nigerians in South
Africa are law abiding, there is a widespread perception
that many others are involved in thedrug and illicit sex trade, a
situation which has sparked protests among locals who accuse
them of taking their jobs andhurting their youth, and in some
cases, violence against Nigerians.
South Africa experienced its worst
outbreak of violence against foreigners in 2008, when more
than 60 people died. In 2015,similar xenophobic unrest in the
cities of Johannesburg and Durban claimed seven lives as
African immigrants were hunteddown and attacked by gangs. And in
February, police used rubber bullets, tear gas and water
cannon to disperse crowds at
an anti­immigrant march in the capital, Pretoria
after angry mobs attacked Nigerians and looted shops in
townships aroundPretoria and parts of
Johannesburg.
Reactions pour
in
Jude Emecheta, who hails from
Ozubulu, told the News Agency of Nigeria that “a dark
cloud has befallen my peaceful town.”
Mr. Emecheta, who is the Managing Director of
Anambra Signage and Advertisement Agency, ANSAA, said that
the lossesfrom the attack were too much for the people to
bear. He wondered why brothers could visit such an attack on
their peopleand urged those involved to “sheathe their
swords.”
Also speaking with NAN, Oseloka
Obaze, a former Secretary to Anambra Government, said such a
callous attackdehumanised the society.
“My heart goes to the family and parishioners of
St. Philips Catholic Church, Ozubulu, where unidentified
gunmen reportedlykilled several church members and wounded several
others early today,” Obaze said.
On his part, Osita Chidoka, a former Minister of
Aviation, said he was saddened by the
incident.
Mr. Chidoka decried the desecration
of the temple of God, adding that nobody attacked anyone in
the church even duringwar times.
“This is tragic; the church is a place of refuge
to anyone who runs into it, and this wicked, barbaric and
mindless bloodletting,shows that something has gone wrong
on our psyche.
“My heart goes to the bereaved at
this moment of pain. I pray that God grants the soul of the
departed eternal rest as I urgethe security agents to fish out the
perpetrators and make them face the law,” he
said.
In his reaction, Victor Oye, the National Chairman,
All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, said that no amount
ofprovocation could justify the killing of innocent
people who had gone to worship in a
Church.
Describing the attack as wicked, Mr. Oye urged the
police to get those responsible for the
massacre.
“As a political leader, I totally
condemn the Ozubulu Church shooting as dastardly,
unjustifiable and callous
“Nobody has the right to kill innocent citizens.
The Police and other relevant security agencies should
ensure that theperpetrators of this crime are caught and made to
face justice,” he said.
In a statement received by Daily Times, the Speaker
of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, described
the attackas abominable, barbaric, inhuman, and the height of
wickedness. Dogara said his heart was broken by the sad news
of themassacre of innocent worshippers in
cold blood by people he described as “sons of perdition
whose souls will rot in hell.”“Have we lost our humanity? Where
is the place of sanctity of life and sacredness of worship
places in our society? Whatoffence did the worshippers commit
to warrant their massacre in cold blood by wicked souls and
heartless men?” Dogaraasked, then reiterated his call for
the overhaul of Nigeria’s policing architecture that will
lead to reform of the Police Force,equip them with modern and
sophisticated gadgets so as to discharge their duties of
protecting lives and property
effectively,and ensure social order in the
society.

Gunman
kills 11 in church over drug barons’
rivalryPosted on Aug 7, 2017 in News | 0
commentsHave you read Trendiee Today? Click
here to readBuhari, Saraki, Dogara, others
condemn attackIt was all like an action-packed
movie.A gunman dressed in black, storming
a church and opening fire on worshippers.There was commotion. By the time
the gunman left, no fewer than 11 worshippers lay
dead.That was the scene yesterday at St.
Philip’s Catholic Church, Amakwa-Ozubulu in Ekwusigo Local
Government Area of Anambra State. The gunman came during
the early morning massMany
were injured during the incident, which Governor Willie
Obiano described as “sacrilegious”.An eyewitness, who narrated how the
attack occurred, said the priest, Rev. Fr. Jude Onwuaso, was
unhurt. The witness, who said he was part of those who
evacuated the victims, said the gunman went into the church,
identified Chief Akunwafor Ikegwuonwu, a parishioner, and
shot him dead. He then went on the rampage, shooting
indiscriminately at worshippers.Commissioner of Police Garba Baba
Umar said 11 persons were killed and 18 injured. He said
some people in the community had been invited for
interrogation.It was leant that the gunman may
have struck on the instruction of one of two suspected drug
barons from the community who live in South Africa. One of
them, who was the gunman’s target, is believed to have
built the Catholic Church about two years
ago.There are two accounts of the
incident. One is that a gunman committed the crime. The
other claimed there were six gunmen.A source from the community, who
pleaded for anonymity, told The
Nation that the gunmen visited the home of one of the
drug barons, perhaps to assassinate him, but discovered that
he had travelled.This, according to the source,
might have made them to visit the Catholic Church near his
house.The father of the suspected drug
baron was killed along with others in the
churchThe police commissioner said
preliminary investigation revealed that the attack was
carried out by people from the area and not by Boko Haram as
being speculated in some quarters.He said: “From our findings, it
is very clear that the person who carried out the attack
must be an indigene of the area.“We gathered that worshippers
for 6 o’clock Sunday mass at St. Philip Ozobulu were in
the service when gunmen dressed in black attire, covering
their  faces with fez caps, entered the church and moved
straight to a particular direction and opened
fire.“The men, after shooting at their
targeted victim, still went on a shooting spree, killing and
wounding other worshippers.’’It was learnt that the attackers
were speaking Igbo when firing at the
worshippers.Umar said though no arrest had been
made, the police were working on the information that the
attack followed a quarrel between two Ozubulu men living
abroad.The commissioner of police said it
was wrong for the perpetrators of the act to take their
quarrel into the church, saying “such conduct shows the
people behind the act do not fear
God’’.The police have launched a manhunt
for suspects.Dismisssing the rumour that the
attack was carried out by Boko Haram elements, Umar urged
residents to go about their businesses without
fear.Obiano visited the church and the
Nnamdi Azikwe University Teaching Hospital, NAUTH, Nnewi
where the injured were being treated.He also confirmed that the shooting
followed a clash of two brothers based abroad. He described
it as a “communal feud”.Obiano promised to offset the
medical bills of the injured and assist in the funeral for
those killed.Some of the critically injured died
on the way to the hospital.Obiano added that intelligence
report linked the shooting to an existing feud between some
members of Umuezekwe Ofufe Amakwa community of Ozubulu
living abroad.“It is an isolated case and I
urge worshippers in the Church and residents of the area to
go about their normal activities.”He also said 50 doctors had been
mobilised to the hospital to assist in providing the best
medical care to the injured persons.The governor also visited Our Lady
of Assumption Catholic Cathedral, Nnewi, where he addressed
a congregation of worshippers.He intimated the worshippers on the
true picture of the incident, saying there was nothing to
worry about.The Priest of St. Philip’s
Catholic Church, Rev. Fr. Jude Onwuaso, said the attack took
place at about 6.30 a.m.According to him, an unidentified
man came into the church, shot at a man,  Ikegwuonwu,
before shooting sporadically at other
worshippers.An eyewitness, who simply
identified herself as a choir member, said the church was
dark as there was no power supply at the
time.She said the generating set
suddenly stopped working; so, the mass proceeded with the
congregation using candles.According to her, the gunman, after
the shooting, immediately jumped into a waiting car with a
driver.One of the survivors, Mr. Stephen
Ohamadike told The
Nation at the church premises that the gunmen entered
the church around 6.45am as they were about to begin “
the prayer of the faithful”.His words: “Those of us who were
to say the prayers of the faithful had just assembled at the
altar and I had number 2 which meant that I was to say the
prayer for Nigeria.“Suddenly, I saw someone who was
putting on a cap, shooting indiscriminately inside the
church.“There was pandemonium and in the
midst of the confusion, I just lay down on the
floor.”The officiating priest and the
Mass servers quickly left the altar and the Mass came to an
abrupt end.”I counted 11 bodies and many
were injured. I used the vehicle belonging to Pa Ikwgwuonu
to take him and his wife and others to Evans Hospital where
the doctors advised us to go to the teaching hospital.  I
used the car to convey many other people to the hospital
before I came back to Amakwa.”

Joseph, we are expressing similar, if not identical, opinions. Look, had we not been told the secret behind the massacre, you and I would have quickly ascribed it to anything but what it actually was - revenge killing of rival "gangs." This is like another black-on-black violence. As Yoruba people would say, "What we would have headed to Sokoto (the northern city) to look for, would be right inside the pocket of sokoto (the long pants) the traveler is wearing. My point: with all credit to Walt Kelly, "We've met the enemy, and it's us." It's people of the same community victimizing each other. So sad! MOA
