A priest was murdered over the weekend by hoodlums in Imo State.
The priest, whose full identity could not be ascertained, also doubled as an academic staff of Imo State Polytechnic, Umuagwo, in Ohaji/Egbema Local Government Area of the state.
Police Public Relations Officer, Andrew Enwerem, a Deputy Superintendent of Police, revealed details of how the priest was murdered/
Enwerem said that the yet to be identified priest was murdered by assassins on a bush path.
He said: “The police are suspecting that it was a clear case of assassination. The priest was gruesomely murdered along a very lonely bush path that would have led him into Port Harcourt Road.”
“The police are suspecting that whatever happened to the priest cannot be far from the ceaseless bickering emanating from the polytechnic.
“Again, I wonder why the priest chose to use the lonely bush path on his Toyota SUV.”
He confirmed that although the vehicle has been recovered, no arrests had been made in connection with the crime.
