OGBONNA IWUAGWU
There was rampage as a 41-year old man, Mr. Pascal Uba, was reportedly killed by youths of Umuiwuogu community in Mbaitoli LGA, Imo State, when he was allegedly caught trying to rape one Mrs. Ebere, who went to her farm.
Sources confirmed that the deceased, Pascal, had been behaving abnormally since his return from Lagos three years ago. The father of the deceased said that his son, Pascal, was a labourer and had no previous report of stealing or rape.
According to him, no one came to report to him about the matter instead, they laid siege for him at night and killed him.
Mrs. Gladys Uba, the mother of the deceased, narrated that she had already gone to the woman to apologise and pledged to take care of her bills.
In her words, “My son was killed because they felt we were poor because he did not actually commit the offence”.
Efforts to get comments from the youths in the community by P.M.EXPRESS correspondent proved abortive as none was ready to speak on the matter or quoted.
