Woman Accidentally Killed by Agunaechemba Operatives in Nnewi

A tragic incident occurred at Ibeto Junction in Nnewi when a woman, Mrs. Chiamaka (Twin), was accidentally shot and killed by Agunaechemba operatives. The operatives were at the junction trying to manage traffic when one of them mishandled their weapon, causing the shot to go off.

In a video now circulating online, the lifeless body of the woman is seen lying on the ground as passersby express shock and anger. Some are heard urging that she be taken to the hospital, while others question why a gun was even fired when the operatives were only controlling traffic. Her body was eventually moved using a tricycle.

This isn’t the first time such accidents have happened involving Agunaechemba operatives. Many are now calling for better training in weapon handling and for the state government to set up strict disciplinary measures. There are also demands that the government compensate the victim’s family and ensure justice is served.
