Mentally Unstable Man Kills Wife, Children, Four Other In Ebonyi

A 35-year-old man identified as Simon Ugbala, believed to be mentally
unstable, killed his wife, two children and four other persons in
Ebonyi state on Monday evening January 21st. 

According to reports, Ugbala went on a rampage in the afternoon,
using matchetes to inflict deep cuts on anyone he saw. In the wake of
his attack, his wife, two children and four others were recorded dead
while four others with serious injuries were rushed to the Accident and
Emergency Unit of Federal Teaching Hospital Abakaliki(FETHA) where they
are currently receiving medical attention.

Confirming the incident, the spokesperson of the state police command, Loveth Odah, said Ugbala is currently on the run.

“On 21st January 2019 at about 2pm, a councillor from Ebonyi local
government representing Onyikwa ward, Mr. Friday Nwigube came to
Kpirikpiri police station and reported that one Ugbala Simon of about 35
years suspected to be insane man went about inflicting machete cuts on
people.

“A combined team of detective rushed to the village where they found
several persons with deep machete cuts. They were rushed to Teaching
Hospital Abakaliki where seven of the victims were confirmed dead by a
medical Doctor. Four others are still receiving treatment but on
critical condition. Police detective and youths of the community are
presently looking for the man.

“Insane person is no more one person business. When one person is
suspected to be insane, the community should come together and take the
person away to the community. I think they have a place to stay which is
a Psychiatric hospital. It is a place where a suspected insane person
is treated” she said

Meanwhile the remains of the deceased have been deposited at the state morgue.
