Ngbo Gruesome Massacre: Indigenous Catholic Priests Break Silence, Supply Reliefs

The scorching silence over the killing and beheading of ten (10) by men in Military Uniform in Ndiagu Orie Umuogudu Akpu, Ngbo, in Ohaukwu local Government Area of Ebonyi State has been broken by an intervention from some Ngbo-ejeogu indigenous Catholic priests, as they have supplied relief materials to the affected families.

The assistance which included cash gifts, according to the Chairman Catholic Men's Organisation, Immaculate Catholic Church Ndiagu Orie, Mr Daniel Oge, were gestures towards assuaging the feelings of the affected families, as well as reduce their difficulties.

According to Mr Oge, the relief items which came from a firebrand Priest, Reverend Father, John Odey, Fr. Peter Azi, and Rev. Fr. Gabriel Owoh in representation of others were offered for families of slain indigenes as well as those whose property were damaged during the March, 10 invasion.

Since the Massacre, the people of the area have been living in thick fears, against rumours of supposed enemies and that of arrest by the military.

NationsTrends authoritatively gathered that six out of the ten that were brutally murdered in the ugly invasion were members of the Immaculate Conception Church, Ndiagu Orie.

Recall that no fewer than ten (10) persons were on Wednesday, March 10, killed and property worth millions of naira destroyed in Ndiagu Orie, Umugudu Akpu Ngbo community in Ohaukwu local government area of Ebonyi state by suspected warlords of Agila.

Three of the deceased were relatives of some journalists of notable media organisations in the state. They included mother of the Public Relations Officer of the state Ministry of Information, Eugene Ebenyi, who was beheaded, Pauline Nwaneri, reporter of Ebonyi State Broadcasting Corporation (EBBC) attached to the wife of the governor of Ebonyi state, Mrs. Rachael Umahi, lost four members of her family to the attack.

This came few days after the Ebonyi State Governor, Enfr. David Umahi, gave a seven-day ultimatum to leaders of Ohaukwu Council Area to produce 'dead or alive' a missing naval officer who was alleged to be missing in the disputed boundary areas.
