Ikechukwu Simeon Ebelebe, an Igbo philanthropist based in Lagos, was kidnapped in the Southeast upon returning home and was killed after his abductors collected 10 million Naira from his family.
His body was identified in a mortuary. He was murdered two weeks ago, and the police recovered his body and deposited it in a mortuary.
His remains were found in a bush in Orumba South LGA, Anambra State. The locals reported a foul smell in the area, and upon investigation, they found a body that the police confirmed was indeed his.
The irony is that when he was about to go to his state, his relatives and some of his staff told him that the Southeast is not safe. However, he told them that he has prayed and fasted, and that everything will be fine. He said he can’t run away from his land.
He also owns a foundation that cares for the elderly and the needy in the East. The foundation’s name is “Divine lyke Foundation for Humanity.”
