Tragic Outcome: APGA Women Leader’s Son Kidnapped and Murdered in Anambra

Reports state that Martins was recently abducted from his family home. Unfortunately, despite efforts to gain his release, his life was lost when the kidnappers demanded a ransom.
In response, YPP candidate for deputy governor Uzu Okagbue denounced the ongoing violence and instability in Anambra State. He offered the family his condolences and advocated for more security to stop future occurrences of this kind.
Anambra, a place of promise now engulfed in suffering, is experiencing yet another dark day. A day that pits the heart against thorns and belittles all previous hopes for a brighter future. We are once again reminded that shadows, not leaders, are in charge of us. not vision, but meaningless noise. By fear rather than bravery.

This is a profound wound, Martins.
Not only are we devastated by the terrible murder of you by criminals after you were abducted from your family home, but we are also devastated by the criminal negligence and deafening silence of a government that has allowed monsters to take over our streets. In addition to losing a brother, son, or light, we are also facing a reality more terrible than gunfire: Anambra State has no government.

We have a system of photo ops and press releases, blood soaking our soil, and evenings ruled by fear. They kill our people like animals. The evildoers go free. Silent burial is reserved for the pious. And the government house only emits echoes of impotence, denial, and perplexity.

“The anguish of a mother whose son, who was so full of plans and hope for his family, unexpectedly passed away is beyond my comprehension. It really isn’t possible. Ndo! I’m Onyekesi, and I’m Ndo!

Who comes next?

This is a death rattle now, not a coincidence. The weight of a failed and absent government is causing Anambra’s spirit to suffocate, gasp, and fade.

Where are the leaders? obscuring our best and brightest while hiding behind protocol and veiled windows. Where are the people who are supposed to safeguard us outraged? Do we now accept grief as a ritual because we’ve grown so used to it?

It is a disgrace to all of us who silently surrender by folding our arms.
An embarrassment to a government that has accepted death as usual, exalted mediocrity, and neglected its governing responsibilities.
Those of us who whisper when we ought to be yelling, wait when we ought to be doing, and pray when we ought to be organizing are to be ashamed!

“This is not about politics, Nambra. It’s a matter of survival.
This has to do with taking back our future from a system that has betrayed our deceased and put our lives in risk.

“We have to get up!
This state has to get rid of the criminals that wander its streets and the complicit government that allows them to do so.
