The late Obi, having retired from the military, had subsequently joined the staff of Federal Polytechnic Uwana. He had also expressed interest in becoming the institution’s next substantive registrar before his unfortunate demise.
As per reports from villagers, he had traveled to his Umuoboama village to attend the funeral of a relative who had been a soldier killed in the Northeast and who had suffered abduction before his demise. Tragically, shortly after Obi returned to his family residence in the village after the funeral weekend, a group of over six armed individuals, some of whom were clad in military and police attire, invaded his home around 10 p.m.
One of the sources said: “They broke through the main door and started using machetes and axes on him. His cry for help attracted villagers to the scene, but the boys who were operating on three motorcycles, started shooting consistently into the air.The shooting forced everybody who had come out for his rescue back. And they abducted Dee Onye Army from that Friday night, leaving heavy blood stains in the house.
“The villagers summoned a search party for him the following day on Saturday. It was late Sunday afternoon that we got information about a decomposing corpse lying between Ehime Mbano and Ahiazu Mbaise.
“When our people visited the scene that Sunday, it was the dead body of our brother, Dee Onye Army, that we met. They gruesomely butchered him beyond recognition.
“Dee Onye Army was a man who ensured that any youth who wanted to go to school got admission. So many youths were given admission in his school. He never lived like a rich man, always unassuming. It was now that he started building his house in the village, and that building is just within the decking stage before his death.”
