The Commissioner of Police in Enugu State, Mr. Kanayo Uzuegbu, in the company of top officials of the State Government, today, October 26, 2024, visited the family of the slain Ogene musician, Chikezie Okezie Nwamba (a.k.a. Igbo-Jah), to console the family for the “unfortunate shooting and murder of the musician by a police officer.”

Consoling the family, Uzuegbu reassured the family, relatives, friends, and good people of Enugu State that the ongoing investigation into the case will be concluded within record time and justice duly served, according to the state Police Public Relations Officer, Daniel Ndukwe, in a statement issued on Saturday night.

Uzuegbu emphasized that the Nigeria Police Force “remains a disciplined organisation where erring police officers are made to face the consequences of their actions to serve as deterrence to others.”

He restated his sympathy and empathy to everyone affected by the unfortunate and callous murder of the musician, urging all and sundry to keep faith with the police while justice is done to the case.

Meanwhile, Ndukwe said that the Police Inspector, Ozonwanji Joseph “m”, whose unredacted photographs are attached, has been identified as responsible for the shooting. He is currently in police custody and will be made to face the full weight of the law upon the conclusion of the investigation, Ndukwe said.
