He also said that Ozor was a notorious cultist who had severally led attacks on the police and its facilities and was highly dreaded during his lifetime.
The post by Okpala said: “This is the man, Ozor Chibuike Chukwuka, that brought about the killing of over 20 persons in his burial.
“He is from my town. He was a member of a strong cult, he was feared by all, and very dangerous. He was even among those that led gangs to kiII police, burn their stations and cart their guns away.
“Many of our people were hailing him, then later he died by the sword, he was shot dead in December, and his rival gangs warned that he should not be given a proper burial. They warned that if they do, many heads will fall, and it did fall.
“They (rival cult) carried out their threat. And now many innocent people that knew nothing were among the dead. My own cousin was among the dead. Very bad day in Ebenebe.”
Though the Anambra State Police Command said it has deployed men of the command in various tactical units to Ebenebe to secure the people, there is no news of any arrest yet.

As of the time of filing this report, he was yet to provide any information.
