"REST in PEACE ...... The good man....
Finally the # CEO # Bethlehem Supermarket located at Beach
Junction, Ibagwa Road Nsukka who was shot inside his Supermarket yesterday is
dead.
The Innocent Man from #Amufuie , Enugu Ezike could not
survive this wicked bullet of men of the Under World....
A man who came back from # Northern Nigeria because of Boko
Haram to establish his business back home and doing well in his business only
to be wasted like this?
A Supermarket that you can buy the best and affordable goods
in #Nsukka as of today....
We never had it so bad in that town called Nsukka like this
before. Too much killings in the land and the yet no solution to it......
The last time I heard about this kind of killings going on
now in Nsukka Land. I was still a kid and in Nursery school during the CULT WAR
of #Dasuki and # Nikoro of those days....
I grew up now to be hearing every week killings in
Nsukka..... Is there something behind this # killings that an Ordinary Man like
me don't know?
As we mourn.....
WE KEEP Moving"
