The Nigeria Union of Journalist (NUJ) has denounced the horrid murder of Nigeria Television Authority (NTA) employee, Chukwu Obiahu, in Okene, Kogi State.
Chukwu, an engineer, was reportedly stoned to death by unidentified persons on Tuesday after he closed from work.
Kogi State NUJ chairman, Comrade Momohjimoh Adeiza at a Press Conference condemned the murder and called on security operatives in the State to unmask the perpetrators of the dastardly act and bring them to justice.
Adeiza described Obiahu as a gentleman whose life was terminated by criminals.
While condoling with the NTA family over the unfortunate incident, the NUJ chairman noted that due to the rising insecurity in Nigeria, Nigerians have found it difficult to go about their legitimate businesses.
Speaking further, Adeiza said, “A young man who went to work to do his legitimate duty was killed on his way home. It is so sad, very unfortunate. At this juncture, I will want to call the Nigeria police, to do everything possible to unravel the circumstances behind the death of that young man.
