Izu Anosike: The Alleged Murderer Still at Large

As a man in his early 30’s, he has had to struggle with the brutality of life. Having lost his parents at an early stage, which left him with his siblings (a boy and two girls) to cater for as the first Child, such responsibility made him assume several duties to ensure he took proper care of his siblings.

The above is the little that can be said of Izuchukwu Anosike, a native of Okpuno in Nnewichi, the alleged mastermind of the murder of the Late Tochukwu Izuckukwu, who lost his life during the Afia -Olu festival in a fight that broke out between two masquerade groups.

The House he and his brother lives in (a three-bedroom bungalow) is the one built for him and his siblings and handed over to them by an Anglican church in Nnewi, when he lost his father.
According to his tenant, apart from fending for himself through menial jobs, Mr Izuchukwu Anosike used to be (or still is) a very active member of vigilante service. He has never been involved in any fights in his street.

Those close to him told our reporters that his only sibling usually seen around him is his only brother while his sisters are hardly seen. However, neither Izu Anosike nor his brother who stays with him has been seen since the day of his alleged murder incident.

Our reporters who visited Izu Anosike’s compound encountered unfriendly neighbours who were very uncooperative and refused to speak to our reporters until we met his tenant who opened up. An elderly man who eventually agreed to speak to our reporters told them that Izuchukwu Anosike is not a good person.

When asked to clarify, he declined.
With the way of Mr Anosike uncertain and said to be at large at the moment, what is certain is that the family of the murdered still grieve and mourn their loss, while every day the suspect, Izu is somewhere probably regretting his actions and still caught up in the thought of what life will be like if finally caught.
We await what time unfolds.
