Charly Boy's cousin, Emeka
Aseme, a business tycoon and a hotelier was forcefully taken away by gun
wielding men during one of his visits to his hotel in Oguta, Imo state on 24th
February. Aseme's family managed to contact the abductors who demanded N8m ransom,
which the family paid but Emeka was not released to them. On the 9th of March,
the men who took the hotelier contacted his younger brother and directed him to
go to a community between Owerri and Oguta called Okwonji, to find him brother.
Emeka's decomposed body was found in a bush path, with his sexual organ , eyes
and the heart plucked out.
About five suspected hired
assassins have been arrested in connection with the incident. This has twisted
the suspicion of many people who had earlier thought that the killers were
kidnappers.
Also one of the killers
allegedly sustained serious injuries during the shootout with the three
policemen who were manning Emeka’s hotel in Oguta. The three policemen were all
killed. The injured kidnapper who ran to a hospital in Port Harcourt was
requested to present his military identity card before treatment, since he went
to the hospital on a military uniform. Unable to provide any proof that he was
a military man, the police were invited, leading to his arrest. Five of the
killers have already been arrested, and police investigations have revealed
that the supposed kidnappers were actually hired assassins.

Charly Boy reacted to his
cousin's gruesome killing, saying:
"I have never seen a thing like this
since I grew up in Oguta. This is extreme barbarism. How can a man be so
callous to his fellow man to the extent of removing different parts of his body
until he finally gave up? This is unheard of. What is this country turning to?
What era is this? As far as I know, no
evil doer will go unpunished. Every evil committed by man to man must surely be
redressed, if not now, certainly later, if not by man, then by God, for the
victory of evil over good is temporary. We are waiting for the outcome of
police investigation. After then, we will take the campaign to Oguta. We must
agitate for peace. The peace that has eluded us must be returned. We are not
known for this.”
