The late Mrs Nneka Nwanyi-Sunday Emeh Kalu was abducted and murdered on August 29, 2021 in Ngugworo Community in Nguzu Edda in Afikpo South, Ebonyi State. She was reported missing and later found dead in a cassava farm.
According to the police investigation, Emeh Kalu, the deceased’s husband, hired five (5) other criminal elements to stage the abduction of his wife by luring her to meet him at a junction to pick up some items for the house in order to fraudulently and hastily ‘inherit’ his wife’s numerous assets, including landed property, houses, money in the bank, and a thriving business, among other things.
The perpetrators strangled her to death after collecting vital information on the whereabouts of title documents and other relevant paperwork of her possessions, according to the investigation.
