Father Of Brutally Murdered Anambra Lawyer Slumps, Dies

Father of Anambra-born lawyer, Jude Oguejiofor who was killed by his abductors has himself died after he slumped on hearing the tragic news of the killing of his son.

Oguejiofo who was the Principal Partner in Oguejiofor & Co Chamber, was in the company of his brother, a medical doctor, when they were ambushed and abducted on their way to see their parents on Sunday. The medical doctor was released but they held on to Jude Oguejiofor.

Sources who pleaded anonymity told the Tribune that, “the gunmen later released his brother and kept him on the allegation that he had been writing petitions to the Anambra State government about their activities.”

They, however, promised that he would be released as soon as they complete their investigations.

“They later contacted the family and told them to forget about the legal practitioner as he had been killed.” 

Family sources confirmed that Oguejiofor’s father was in stable health until he received the devastating news that his son had been murdered by the kidnappers. He collapsed and died suddenly shortly after receiving the news. 

“The man was healthy while his son was in captivity but the trauma from Jude’s abduction proved too much for him to bear after we were informed of his death,” a family member revealed.
