How the Decaying Remains of Justice Azuka, a Missing Lawmaker From Anambra, Were Discovered

Nearly two months following his abduction, the remains of Hon. Justice Azuka, who served as the representative for Onitsha North constituency 1 in the Anambra State House of Assembly, have been discovered in a state of decomposition. The body was located on Thursday morning at the 2nd Niger Bridge by a joint security team. Azuka was kidnapped by armed assailants on December 24, 2024, while he was making his way home along Ugwunaobankpa Road in Inland Town, Onitsha. After several weeks of investigation, security personnel from Abuja apprehended the suspects on the evening of Wednesday, February 5, 2025. The detained individuals subsequently guided authorities to the site where they had disposed of the lawmaker's remains.
