Innocent Sound Engineer Lynched In Anambra After Devilish Boys Who Vandalised His Car Called Him A Kidnapper
A sound engineer has met his untimely death in Anambra state.
42-year-old Paschal Chinazor Onyilo was beaten to death by residents of Umuoji village in Anambra last week.
The native of Abatete in Idemili North LGA of Anambra State, was driving to Obosi area to set up his sound equipment for an event when some school boys threw stones at his car on getting to Umuoji.
He then alighted from the vehicle to accost the kids over the damage. All of them ran away except one boy who was caught by Paschal.
It was learnt that Paschal held the boy and requested that he should take him to his parents as he drove him in his car. Meanwhile the other children who had escaped – raised an alarm that a certain man had ‘kidnapped’ one of them.
The villagers quickly mobilized themselves, came back and confronted Paschal. They didn’t give him a chance to explain himself and pounced on him immediately beating mercilessly. His car was also set on fire before he was rescued by the police.
The villagers who saw some political stickers in his car – accused him of being a kidnapper who works for politicians in the state and was looking for children to use for rituals.
By the time help came, Paschal was already unconscious and he was taken to Iyi-Enu Hospital, Ogidi.
He did survive an emergency surgery and was able to narrate what happened to the police and others that visited him in hospital.
Sadly he gave up the ghost yesterday.
Sad, very sad. Rip bro.
Those children have brought a heavy curse upon themselves. Unfortunately they will have forgotten when they start reaping what they sowed
Evil that men do.
Sorry dear. That’s how life is sometimes
