Pastor Beaten To Death By Unknown Men And Dumps Body In Stream-sad news
Apprehension heightened in the Enugu State capital yesterday following
the brutal murder of a pastor, Rev. Victor Nnaduagwu.
Until his demise, the pastor, suspected to have been murdered at the
early hours of yesterday, resided at No 1. Ilukwe Street, Asata in
Ogui Layout, Enugu.
It was gathered that some residents of the street discovered the
lifeless body of the pastor when they went to fetch water from the
stream.
A source, who was present while sympathisers were pulling the victim
out from the stream, told LEADERSHIP that the deceased had bruises all
over his body.
"Those who went inside the stream while he was being pulled out said
he had bruises in some parts of his body.
They said his face looked like something that his killers used stone
or nail to hit," she stated.
The source, who preferred anonymity, expressed dismay over the murder
of the pastor, saying that until his demise, he provided security at
the entrance of Ilukwe Street with his dogs.
According to her, members of the deceased's family were out of town
when the incident took place.
