TRAGEDY struck, last weekend, at Obegu
Autonomous Community in Ugwunagbo Local Government
Area of Abia State when two youths, Nkwachukwu
Onyeukwu and Eze Kafor, lost their lives over N1000.
Nkwachukwu Onyeukwu, a.k.a One Thousand, was the
son to the village head of the community and village youth
leader, while Eze Kafor , a.k.a Senator, was a prominent
youth in the community.
A reliable eyewitness told said that the duo died while
struggling for N1,000 commission meant for the youths from
the proceeds of palm fruit sales in the community.
The buyer of the community palm fruit, from Cross River
State, whose name could not be identified at press time, was
supposed to have settled the youths with the said sum of
N1,000 but was only able to provide N300.
While Nkwachukwu, the youth leader, appealed to Eze to
allow the buyer to go and pay the balance later, Eze refused
and a scuffle ensued during which Eze collected the palm
fruit buyer’s knife and fatally struck Nkwachukwu.
Angry youths of the community on hearing the sad news,
trooped to Eze’s residence, bundled him into his house, set it
ablaze and watched him die inside it.
